Two men were seriously injured in a ‘machete fight’<\/a> on a south Manchester street.<\/p>\n The shocking brawl in Hulme<\/a> was captured in dash-cam footage, which shows a group of five men hacking at each other in broad daylight with what appear to be machetes. It came after two youths on e-bikes, dressed head to toe in black, including black balaclavas, began attacking a car as it waited at the traffic lights on Jackson Crescent in Hulme at around 3pm on Saturday.<\/p>\n After the bike-riders strike the car’s driver and passenger windows with the knives, two men, who also appear to be armed with machetes, get out of the car and fight back. A brief stand-off follows, with both sides wildly swinging at each other, before the two men who launched the attack flee.<\/p>\n Click here<\/a> to get the biggest stories straight to your inbox in our Daily Newsletter<\/p>\n A third youth, who was a passenger on one of the bikes, is also present but in the footage is not seen taking part in the brawl.<\/p>\n On Saturday night a large police cordon was in place at the nearby crossroads of Stretford<\/a> Road and Chorlton<\/a> Road, understood to be in connection with the incident.
