Cape Town - It was the fight that had South Africa talking this week, and which left many with the phrase, "Hugo, bel die polisie!" stuck in their head.

The viral video begins with two groups of people arguing outside a house with some trying to get away in a car. The arguing quickly descends into physical violence with hair pulling, fist fighting and screaming.

The aggressive altercation was all recorded on video by a neighbour across the street, who now infamously, screamed: "Hugo, bel die polisie!" (Hugo, call the police!).

It remains unclear where the incident occurred but many on social media have suggested that the fight took place in Gauteng.
