translated from Spanish: Video: Battle Campal at Recital de La Mona Jiménez

This weekend was a disturbing filming that took place during a concert of the Mona Jiménez in the town of El Brete, Córdoba, where a battle was unleashed between some groups of spectators. The show, framed on the 150th anniversary of the town, took place on Friday the 24th and was scheduled to finish around 2:30 in the early hours of Saturday 25th. However, the artist decided to finish it before because of the violence that lived down the stage. At the beginning of the video you can see how some security personnel try to contain an avalanche generated in a public sector when they suddenly start to blow up chairs. A large circle is set up while the authorities seek to separate the conflicting groups but pineapples and blunt objects continue to happen.
