The incident occurred in the Handsworth Wood area of Birmingham over the weekend.
A man in a pink shirt is already being detained by police when another man brutally punches the woman holding him.
The black-jacket clad thug then hits another man in a blue top next to him, as the detained pink-shirted man attempts to break free.
Meanwhile the hurt police officer can be seen staggering backwards and holding her head.
While the two men continue to fight, the man in the pink shirt kicks the car next to where he is detained.
An onlooker can be heard saying: "What the f**k. Oh my God, she's just been hit. No way, no way. Oh my God."
He adds: "They are going to have to call back up. It's women, that's not right, why have they not sent men?"
Thankfully, the brave police officer quickly recovers to take control of the situation.
After breaking the fight apart she manages to detain the hat-wearing assailant, while the third man in the blue top walks away.
Both men can then be seen being held to the ground by the cops.
One of the police officers radios for backup while pinning the men's arms behind them.
A woman in a pink tracksuit decides to get involved in the tense moment, walking over to stand on the attacker's head.
A sickening thud can be heard as his head smacks into the ground.
The video has since gone viral on social media after it was uploaded by Birmz Is Grime.
One commenter said: "All blokes standing about."
Another added: "Instead of filming, why don't you go and help?"
Others were satisfied by the video's ending, commenting "I'm so glad he got his karma in the end."
While another wrote: "Taste of vigilante justice at the end."
Some commenters suggested the women deserved a pay rise after seeing how difficult their job can be.
West Midlands Police has been approached for comment.

Moment police snare suspects after £100k Apple device raid on phone shop

This is the moment police found a haul of Apple devices worth nearly £100,000 in the back seat of a car after masked raiders hit a phone shop in central London. Officers were called to reports of a burglary at the O2 store in Tottenham Court Road on 24 July, where a gang reportedly entered the shop wearing balaclavas and made off with around 100 iPhones and scores of Apple Watches. Three men aged 25, 24, and 18 were arrested on suspicion of aggravated burglary minutes later in nearby Cranleigh Street. A search on the car also uncovered a large machete. All three remain in custody.

Drug prevention officer exposed by his own bodycam after it records video of his affair with married school teacher

A Tennessee police officer who taught drug prevention to children was betrayed by his own bodycam after it captured him having an affair with a school teacher. Brian Gilley, who has since been dismissed from the Lebanon Police Department, is accused of engaging in sexual activity with Shelby Moss inside school property while on duty. The bodyworn footage, obtained by WZTV, showed the pair kissing in a classroom in August 2024, moments after a child leaves the room. The video was blurred to hide the youngster's identity. Moss worked at the Castle Heights Elementary School, in Lebanon, and Gilley had been assigned to work there as a Drug Abuse Resistance Education officer. The Lebanon Police Department said that a month later in September, another incident took place after classes had ended, during which the two engaged in sexual activity – though there is no footage of that incident. Gilley later said he was unsure whether any students were still on school grounds at the time. According to Fox, Gilley denied the allegations in an internal interview, telling investigators that no sexual contact occurred while he was on duty. But he later admitted to the relationship and resigned soon after. During a decertification hearing in April 2025, Gilley asked for forgiveness, saying: 'I know I've done wrong, but I've also impacted that community in so many ways. It was a mistake and it will never happen again.' He added he was 'very embarrassed' by his conduct. In May 2025, the Tennessee Peace Officer Standards and Training Commission voted to decertify Gilley, who is now barred from serving in law enforcement in the state. In a statement, Lebanon Police Department Chief, Mike Justice, said: 'While Gilley's actions did not align with our department's standards or policies, the conduct was not criminal in nature, did NOT involve children, and did NOT occur in the presence of children or in the classroom. ' 'We hold our officers to the highest standards of professionalism and integrity. Gilley's actions fell short of those expectations that our community demands and deserves.' LPD reported that Moss was married at the time of this relationship with Gilley. She received a two-day suspension earlier this year but later resigned in May. A spokesperson for the Lebanon Special School District told Fox Nashville that the district had been made aware 'that a teacher engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a police officer after hours while on campus,' in December 2024. 'The District immediately conducted a thorough investigation and took appropriate disciplinary action in line with our policies and procedures,' the spokesperson said. 'We want to assure our families and community that we take all concerns seriously and act promptly to maintain a safe and respectful learning environment for everyone."

Devon and Cornwall crime commissioner sorry for multiple bodies claim

A police and crime commissioner has apologised for claiming that multiple human remains had been discovered in woodland in Cornwall at the centre of a murder investigation. Alison Hernandez told a meeting of the Devon and Cornwall police and crime panel that 'dead bodies' had been found at Sticker, near St Austell, and investigations were continuing to establish exactly how many. Devon and Cornwall police said in response that the body of one man had been recovered from woods and no other remains had been found. Police and forensic experts have been carrying out extensive inquiries in the woodland since the discovery of the body of 43-year-old Daniel Coleman. James Desborough, 39, is accused of murdering Coleman, from St Austell, between 2 June and 7 July. He is due back before Truro crown court next month. Hernandez said on Friday evening: 'In trying to be helpful I responded to an operational question at the police and crime panel, however, I was not fully up to date with the facts of the investigation. 'I apologise for any alarm this may have caused. The police have operational primacy over these matters.' Det Supt Jon Bancroft, with Devon and Cornwall police, said: 'We currently have three separate murder investigations being conducted in the Cornwall area. 'I have oversight of all of these investigations at this time, and can confirm they are being carried out independently of each other and are not believed to be linked. 'I can categorically state that we have recovered remains believed to be those of Daniel Coleman only from an area of woodland in Sticker.' Police are also investigating the discovery of the body of Lee Hockey, 50, who was found in separate woodland between Truro and Probus on 1 July. A third murder inquiry is under way after a fatal fire at a residential property in Newquay on 22 July. The body of a man in his 30s was found in the property, with a 33-year-old man arrested on suspicion of murder.
