Video – Huge Immigrant Brawl Leaves 4 Shot, 25 Wounded In Calais

4 Teenage immigrants were fighting for their life and 25 others were left wounded after a huge fight broke out between two groups of illegals trying to make their way to the UK from the French port city of Calais.

The initial fight, which lasted almost two hours, broke out on the city's southern outskirts where the former immigrant camp called ‘the jungle’ used to be. Several groups had been standing in line for hours looking for food handouts from NGO’s.

Some 100 Eritreans and some 30 Afghans could then be seen getting into a large fight, which started when one of the Afghans fired a gun into the crowd of Africans.

In the end, some four Eritrean teenagers are left in a critical condition with gunshot wounds and were rushed to a local hospital for surgery. Due to the severity of his life-threatening injuries, a fifth man was taken to the northern city of Lille to undergo operations;

Some 25 others were wounded due to "blows from iron bars", according to the local prosecutor's office.
