Yob in Spider-Man costume causes mayhem in Tesco two weeks before superhero mob brawl in Asda
A YOB in a Spider-Man costume caused mayhem in a Tesco just two weeks before a violent brawl in Asda, it is claimed.
Shocking footage posted online two weeks ago appears to show the comic book character fighting what looks to be a karate fighter on top of the chiller aisles in the store.
The link to the creator’s YouTube has been removed of all content.
A clip which emerged today appears to show a prankster in a Spider-Man outfit brawling with another man in a Tesco store.
The supermarket is currently probing whether the video features the same costumed gang involved in a shocking brawl in an Asda store on Thursday, according to MailOnline.
A source told MailOnline: “We think it is the same group of people and are looking into what action was taken.”
The Sun has approached Tesco for comment.
Meanwhile, the TikTok account which is linked to the clip shows an array of stunts inside supermarkets, with the creators hoping to attract clicks and fans through outrageous stunts.
ASDA BRAWL
It comes after shocking footage emerged yesterday of a man dressed as Spider-Man knocking out a female Asda worker – before a full-on brawl erupted in the supermarket.
Footage shows the yob kicking out at staff and shoppers while standing next to a girl in a costume.
A female worker then grapples with the girl before the Spider-Man thug confronts her.
He shouts “come on b***h” before landing a punch on the employee – knocking her out cold.
As she falls to the ground, stunned bystanders can be heard shouting “oh my god”.
A separate video posted from the same incident shows a huge brawl at the entrance to the supermarket in Clapham Junction, South West London.
People can be seen fighting on the ground as the Spider-Man thug continues to lob punches.
Some shoppers in wheelchairs can be seen getting involved as staff desperately try to break the violence up.
As the footage ends, the yob is captured savagely swinging a pole at rivals as onlookers scream.
The videos were posted on Twitter where they have been viewed thousands of times.
Police confirmed a woman in her 20s taken to hospital with a minor injury.
Five others were treated at the scene following the horror at around 10.40pm on Thursday night.
TEEN ARREST
The Met said two girls aged 17 and 18 and two men aged 35 and 37 have been arrested on suspicion of affray and violent disorder.
A 31-year-old man was held on suspicion of actual bodily harm, grievous bodily harm, affray and violent disorder.
All five remain in custody at a South London police station.
The Met said: “Police were called at 22:40hrs on Thursday, 22 July to reports of a group of people involved in a disturbance at a supermarket on Lavender Hill, SW11.
“Officers attended along with London Ambulance Service. A woman in her 20s was taken to hospital with a minor injury. A further five people were treated at the scene.
