“After speaking to everyone, it was deemed to be a consensual fight and no charges were laid as a result.”

Video of the incident was posted to Reddit on Tuesday, and shows roughly seven people arguing in the street in two eastbound lanes of Hamilton Road closest to the curb.

One person then opens a trunk and a man pushes him against the vehicle, before the group moves further onto the roadway towards the westbound lanes and at least two men are knocked to the ground. More yelling ensues before all parties appear to return to their respective vehicles and traffic begins to resume.
