Woman shouts 'I'll bite your nose off' in street brawl in front of crying children

A brawl which kicked off in the street closed to a primary school has left adults in shock as horrified school children looked on.

A man was caught on camera throwing punches while holding a small child in his arms as people on the school run looked on in horror.

The fight took place near St Cecilia's Junior School in Tuebrook, Liverpool at around 2.15pm on Thursday, the Liverpool Echo reports.

An eyewitness, who filmed the fight from their car, said they were "horrified" to see one of the people involved was holding a baby while getting involved in the spat.

The video shows what looks like two groups of adults shouting in the street before one woman charges at another.
