Woman kicked in the head as she lay on the ground during vicious street attack

A woman was booted in the head during a violent street brawl in a UK city, after she was knocked to the floor by a bloke.

The clash broke out in Liverpool city centre on Sunday, September 24, around the popular bar area of Slater Street. Mobile phone footage of the flashpoint shows how the woman, in her 30s, was approached by three men and a woman before an argument kicks off.

It soon becomes physical and one of the blokes runs up to the woman and throws a punch, knocking her to the ground. Another man can be seen jumping in and kicking the woman in the head as she lies on the ground.

The Liverpool ECHO reported that the clip has been shared widely on WhatsApp, and Merseyside Police are investigating.

Screams can be heard in the footage as a man runs up to the woman and throws a punch, and reports suggest she was hospitalised after the attack.

Police said the victim suffered a cut to her chin and received hospital treatment.

As the footage goes on, the first man can then be seen getting to his feet and stamping on the woman's head as another woman tries to intervene. The man continues to aim kicks at the woman until another man rushes to her aid.

It was reported the group made off towards Bold Street and Hanover Street, other popular drinking streets in Liverpool.
