The thirty-second clip, obtained by the Manchester Evening News, shows a group of people standing around a ticket machine inside a car park at Terminal 2.

Three police officers - one male and two female - approach two men standing by one of the ticket machines and proceed to restrain one of them, who was wearing a matching light blue top and shorts.

The second man, wearing a black T-shirt, then circles around the male officer, who was leading the restraint of the first man, and appears to begin to attack him.

The pair then seem to begin punching one another while the first man hits the two female officers multiple times.

The man in the black T-shirt is eventually tased by the male officer, at which point the second man looks to have knocked the two other officers down and proceeds to punch the male officer in the back of the head.
