A couple were left covered in blood after an argument with elderly tourists escalated into a violent fight at a popular scenic attraction in China.
The pair reportedly clashed with a 62-year-old man and a 58-year-old woman at the Five-Coloured Pond viewing platform in Sichuan’s Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area on November 2.
Graphic footage shows a man in a blue jacket repeatedly punching another man wearing a purple shirt as the confrontation intensified.
In a separate video, the younger couple can be seen with blood on their faces while other visitors surround them and offer assistance.
The dispute allegedly started when the older pair tried to move ahead of others waiting to take photographs at the busy viewpoint.
