This is the moment thugs were caught on camera launching bins and chairs at locals in a working men's club.

Footage shows the scene erupt in the bar area at the Brudenell Social Club in Leeds on Saturday 25th January at 12.25am.

The video sees locals barricading themselves behind tables and chairs as three men launch plastic bins in the bizarre attack.

At one point a thug snatches a chair from one of the men before throwing it across the room followed by a side table.

Locals are heard shouting 'stop' as they cower behind furniture with one woman shouting: 'What are you doing?'

The venue is famed for hosting secret gigs for bands including Kaiser Chiefs.

The men are then see leaving the pub together as the man recording the footage turns to his friends who appear baffled at their behaviour.

A student in the bar said the three men, believed to be aged between 22 and 27, were refused service at the bar which led to their brawl escalating.

'I have never seen them before at the pub - they had been in there drinking.

'They continued to get more lairy and they were quite loud.'

'Something kicked off when they were refused service at the bar and a man was punched just before I started filming.

'As far as I know there were no serious injuries.'

They added how the atmosphere in the pub is 'quite chill normally' and it is 'usually quite a nice place to be' with a mix of students and older locals.

West Yorkshire Police were called to the scene following the brawl which lasted around five minutes.
