Chaotic moment street fight explodes in Islington before motorist runs over cyclist during the melee

This is the moment chaos broke out on the streets of London yesterday as a motorist appeared to run over a cyclist.

In footage posted online, a man holding a baseball bat was seen crossing the road.

He was spotted approaching another person in Islington, north London.

However, the man with the baseball bat was charged at by another man in a balaclava and fell over, scrambling backwards as he was pursued.

The second man was joined by a third. They continued chasing the man before running back over the road.

The incident happened on Holloway Road, near to where Arsenal FC play their home matches, at the Emirates Stadium.
