Throngs of people blatantly broke lockdown rules to cheer on a fight outside a pub that was streamed on Facebook Live. In footage of the scrap, a huge crowd can be seen circling two men wearing boxing gloves as they take each other on.
There are several dozen people standing shoulder-to-shoulder in the crowd as the fight continues near the Crockets Hotel in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Chronicle Live reported.
As well as crowd members standing on the tarmac, some are loitering on stands specially constructed from a lorry and a van. Do you have a coronavirus story to tell?
