Scottish trio seen throwing punches after heated altercation in shop car park

A group were caught on camera last week after a heated altercation outside a local shop in Fife.

In a video that quickly went viral, the Scottish trio could be seen as they threw a series of punches in front of shocked passers by in Glenrothes.

Taken on May 19, the clip saw things escalate quickly as the three men approached each other in the car park outside Glenwood Premier Post Office.

Without any warning, one man begins to hit the other in the face, with the first punch sparking off a huge rammy between the group.

The Record reports that the instigator of the fight had received a number of hits to the head and other areas of his body, before police were called to the scene.

The video itself appears to end with the fight calming down and turning verbal, with officers confirmed to have arrived shortly after.
