A group of Marines traded punches with civilians in Austin, Texasโ entertainment district in a wild, caught-on-camera street brawl witnessed by dozens of revelers.
The video, apparently captured Sunday night, showed the melee broke out after a young woman appeared to grab a phone from a Marine and toss it away during a verbal confrontation on Sixth Street.
One young man in a white hoodie then lunges toward a Marine before heโs stopped by others all wearing their dress blue uniforms, the footage shows.
For a few seconds, several Marines jaw back and forth with the young man and a couple of his friends โ with a little shoving involved โ before the man in the white hoodie appears to throw the first punch.
Chaos ensues as at least a couple of fights between the different groups erupt.

Staged
They thought Marines and Police are the same, Naaa, Marine work out every day and not afraid of civilians complain.
The guy is clearly intoxicated and tripped…no one got laid out…i saw no hands from anyone๐…soft ahh branch
Only in Texas
This would've NEVER happened in my teenage or even adult youth, period! And I'm a retired USAF vet. The fact that these guys even let it in their Fckn minds to approach or get into it with Marines is an example of how the left has changed to culture. We were afraid to even think about stepping to an Soldier or Marine the wrong way. Ridiculous.
Never ever put your hands on they marine their train killersโฆ
Soldier A took some digs
Yโall itโs funny that training helped these young men. They would have been bullied easily in highschool vs these thugs but nowadays with some confidence and understanding boom. Just wait until they see what happens in the streets when they meet the real men.
Whahahaha
I mean this what happen when theyโre used to picking on the weak .. not today BOY!!
Never
"young men in marine uniforms…." they're Marines man.
NYPost comment section hahaha
Austin is not what it once was. It has literally turned into a mini San Francisco wanna be. I went to high school there back in the late 60's and it is now unrecognizable. Runned by dumb liberals with little to no foresight.
Marines did well to Tey calm the situ but aft that was lost boom what did the citizens expect
Hahahhahha nice
The Few The Proud ๐ช ๐ช ๐ช
Curious to know what transpired in the first place, to start the fight.
They are all little marinesโฆ.
"diversity is our strength"
Somebody needs to remind those kids, we don't pester our soldiers. Respect them. That's an unwritten rule son.
Welcome to the new world. Where Police, Military and other forms of Emergency Services and those that step up to serve in other capacities are disrespected, abused and treated with contempt by the TikTok generation.
Ever since the marines got chased out of Afghanistan pooing ๐ฉ their pants, people lost respect
13%. Fatherless and uneducated is their claim to fame.
Only took 1 punch, while that marine took 3 and didn't even move ๐๐
You don't F..k with trained killers
Wow, they look like some high school ROTC. So young.
People saying dont marines….but nothing happened lol
Ahhhhh another black kids choosing the wrong decision. As usual
Ofcourse it had to be the usual suspects
Thats a team
LEFT , RIGHT ,LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT
Itโs look like civilians brawlings the marines.
Big talk then on the floor after a punch ๐
Many years ago, marines training local law enforcement on our island in the Caribbean. Few of them went to a public concert, got into an altercation. Despite getting a bottle shattered on his head this 1 marine pulverized 2 local guys, more locals stepped in and 2 more marines appeared from nowhere and handled all the local guys with ease. Was so impressive the effective manner they did it too.
Blackss will be blackss
๐ฉ๐จ
Usual suspects causing trouble ๐๐๐
How every news crime clip start is with 3 black Guys.
The cops didnโt need to show up. They probably showed up just to save them thugs from the Marines.
Oh and the majority of my fellow Jarheads appear to be Latinos…people of color…so don't play the race card. Those 3 idiots definitley over-estimated their own abilities๐๐
15 people vs 1 .. and they called themselves braves.. joker
Black dudes are all talk they cant fight for their life ๐๐๐
Civilian started it
Same old race card
the black dude punch multiple times but he got one punch to get knockdown ๐
Everyone so brave in a gang๐ lets see how each of them would be at 1 v 1
Let the marines fight with MMA boys
