A group fight broke out outside a nightclub in Cecil Street in the wee hours of the morning on Jul. 21.

The fight

A video of the fight was circulating on Instagram on Jul. 21.

A man in a white shirt and black pants was seen squaring off against two other men, one in a black singlet and another in a black T-shirt and jeans, outside the Cherry Discotheque nightclub.

The white-shirted man took a swipe at the man in a black singlet before showing a hand gesture.

Beside him, a man with blond highlights did the same.

As the situation heated up, a woman tried to step in between the two parties but was pushed away by the white-shirted man.

He then took out what looked like a baton and started hitting the man in the black T-shirt in the head till he fell to the ground.
