CHILDREN sobbed and screamed in fear as a terrifying brawl broke out on the streets of Benidorm between a man and a topless tourist.
Footage captured the moment rowdy holidaymakers came to blows in the holiday hotspot beloved by Brits in the early hours of July 20.

The “brutal” bust-up is said to have unfolded in front of several kids, who were shoved out of the way as the altercation escalated.
Shocking video shows a shirtless man in grey shorts being held back by a blonde woman wearing a blue dress who is trying to calm tensions.
But he pushes her out of his path just seconds later and charges towards another bloke wearing a white t-shirt and khaki shorts.
The thug is then seen reigning down a number of powerful punches as onlookers desperately scream: “Stop it!”
The brawling pair are then momentarily separated by passersby, while another woman asks: “You did that in front of your kids?”
“Listen, the kids are screaming,” another person yells.
One woman is seen attempting to shield at least two children from the violence as they watch on nervously from the pavement.
After a momentary lull in the chaos, the man in the white t-shirt then seeks revenge on his shirtless attacker and appears to strike him in the face.
Further blood-curdling screams follow, while the group continue to row in the street.
An eye-witness told the Daily Star one of the men had been heard arguing on the phone prior to the scuffle in the holiday hotspot.
He is said to have told his rival: “Meet me on the f***ing corner you c***.”
The anonymous onlooker said: “It is not pretty to watch as a parent.
“He ran over there, pushed the kids out the way, smacked the bloke and knocked him out.
“They were scrapping, the kids were screaming, it was brutal. Gives Benidorm a bad name.”
It is currently unclear if Benidorm cops are investigating the street brawl.
Spanish officials are on a mission to stamp out booze-fuelled violence and drunken antics that plague the party-loving city.
New rules have been introduced in parts of the country in recent years to tackle what the authorities called “the tourism of excesses”.
Authorities aimed to crack down on public nudity, drinking, sex acts and anti-social behaviour.
In June last year, a pair of randy tourists caught romping against a bin were seen being whacked with truncheons by cops.
We previously told how a Benidorm expert shared his survival guide for tourists to stay out of trouble with the law.
