Police can be seen trying to control the men as they hurled chairs at each other in front of a restaurant on the capital's popular 'Ghost Street'.

Several were shown with bloodied faces.

Nearby, a young woman was shown standing next to an apparently-injured woman lying on the ground.

The fight brought chaos to Beijing's Ghost Street
once the fight had been mostly dispersed, officers struggled to prevent one group, who onlookers said were Tibetan, from hurling bricks, stones and chairs at the restaurant front.

Mr Ai, China's most famous contemporary artist, said the fight appeared to be between security guards at a Sichuanese restaurant and Tibetan vendors who sell jewellery on mobile stands.

Han Chinese witnesses told that the fight had started when security workers refused to allow the vendors to sell on the pavement in front of their restaurant.

funny, chinesse people can be so peaceful then they can be so chaotic. i think is because they hold things in and when they are presented with a situation they can't control they get out of hand.
