A Tesco security guard is being investigated after shocking footage captured a mass brawl breaking out inside a supermarket between staff and two suspected thieves. <br /><br />The violent scenes erupted at the superstore in Aston, Birmingham, when security tried to apprehend a pair of alleged shoplifters on Sunday afternoon (9/1). <br /><br />Dramatic mobile phone footage shows a Tesco worker swinging at one of the suspects as he pleads: "Don't hit me, I've got nothing to do with it." <br /><br />The same store bouncer then runs over to another person being grappled by staff and aggressively delivers several heavy "MMA-style" elbows to his back. <br /><br />The person filming the footage can be heard saying: "It's getting silly in here. It's all mad. He's mashing him up here. Oh s**t."<br /><br />Meanwhile, an elderly woman can be seen walking into shot and casually continuing her shopping as the violence breaks out around her. <br /><br />West Midlands Police confirmed they were called to the superstore on Aston Lane at 3.40pm on Sunday after a Tesco staff member was punched in the face. <br /><br />This video was filmed on the 9th January 2022 around 3.40pm.
