THIS is the shocking moment a security guard punches and headbutts "shoplifters" during a violent shopping centre brawl.
Footage uploaded onto social media went viral with the incident taking place at the Westfield Stratford City complex in London.
According to Westfield Stratford, the brawl was sparked after an "alleged shoplifting incident" in JD Sports.
The violent altercation then spilled out into the mall in full view of the public.

One of the alleged shoplifters takes a few swipes at the man behind before landing a kick on his back as shocked bystanders look on.
