This is the terrifying moment a group of masked youths attacked each other with machetes and baseball bats in broad daylight.

The fight was thought to have started after a car was first smashed up in Balsall Heath, Birmingham before an all-out brawl on Sunday (March 13).

In shocking footage shared by Birmingham Live, two gangs can be seen beating each other by the roadside.

One hits the passengers with his machete as they try to escape from the white car.

Another appears to lose his shoe as he made his way to the pavement while other gang members chase them with long blades and baseball bats.

The car's rear window is smashed and completely broken, as seen in the video.

Another video taken from an earlier time shows the heated exchange the two groups had on a busy road not far from a petrol station.

One gang members group run back to a red car and flee as a van drives past the scene while the others hop on a white car and take off towards the same direction.

A spokesperson for West Midlands Police told Daily Star: "We’re investigating a disorder on Willows Road, Balsall Heath, around 2.20pm yesterday.

"Several men were seen with weapons, including knives, attacking a parked car on the road. Some of the men left in a white Ford Fiesta.

"Our officers attended and carried out an extensive search of the area, however no weapons were found and the men had dispersed. No-one has come forward with injuries.

"We are aware of a video circulating on social media, which does look alarming. We want to reassure local residents that we are working harder than ever to establish the full circumstances of this incident and trace the individuals involved.
