SHIJIAZHUANG CITY, China, April 19 (UPI) -- An unusual street fight in China involved rival construction firms using bulldozers and front-end loaders to do battle in the middle of an urban street.

Video captured by a witness Saturday in Xingtang County, Hebei province, shows two heavy construction vehicles clashing with their shovels in the middle of a street.

Other vehicles soon join the melee, bringing the total number of heavy construction vehicles to six, and at least two of the bulldozers and front-end loaders ended up toppling in the scuffle.

The bulldozer street fight came to an end when police arrived.

A Chongqing Morning Post report indicated the drivers were workers for rival construction firms whose competition for clients got out of hand.
