A Mother’s Day male stripper show descended into a large-scale brawl at a Normanby pub.

Police arrested two women after a fight broke out at The Woodman Arms, and spilled out into the car park behind.

The pub had advertised the stripper show on its Facebook page, encouraging people to “treat your mum to something different”.

And a picture posted by the pub showed dozens of ladies enjoying the entertainment on Sunday afternoon - with a group gathered around a stripper in a workman-style get up.

But hours later, violence erupted.

A witness claimed he saw women “all piling in” and a number of others being put into the back of a police van, after officers broke up the scrap in the car park behind Normanby High Street.

A Cleveland Police spokeswoman confirmed: “Police were called to the Woodman Arms at around 10.25pm on Sunday night to reports of up to a dozen women fighting.

“It started inside the pub and then moved outside.

“Two women, aged 24 and 30, were arrested for being drunk and disorderly in a public place and were issued with fixed penalty notices (FPN).”

Anyone issued with an FPN for being drunk and disorderly must pay a £90 fine.

The Gazette has tried to contact the Woodman Arms for comment.

In October last year, a man was arrested after a mass brawl saw dozens of men battling in High Street, Normanby, in scenes reminiscent of the “Wild West”. Shocked onlookers witnessed the bedlam on a Saturday night, with men openly swinging punches at each other.
