This is the harrowing moment that two teenage boys have to be pulled apart by concerned by-standers as they trade blows with each other in North Dublin on Tuesday evening.
The 30 second video shows people rushing to the scene in Finglas as one boy with a white top and dark jacket and a second in a light blue t-shirt go head-to-head outside a pub in the area.
The boy in blue can be seen delivering several hits to the other boy who tries to block his face beside The Abbey Tavern pub.
A group of people are shown trying to pull the boy in the blue t-shirt away from the situation but they are unsuccessful in breaking up the fight.
The boy in the white t-shirt then begins to return the punches which connect with the head of the boy in blue.
The boy in blue seems to then grab the other lad by the collar of his jacket before an adult intervenes and pulls the boy in white off the other child.
The situation is not solved immediately however and several other adults are forced to help with break up the brawl before eventually they are separated.
Dublin Live has reached out to Gardai for a comment.
