FIRST ON 3AW BREAKFAST

Footage has emerged of an ugly brawl between exiting racegoers at Flemington after yesterday’s Melbourne Cup.

With Uber rendered useless due to tech glitches, tensions were running high at the ride-sharing app’s dedicated drop-off zone.

It was about 5.45pm that the brawl broke out.

Footage captured by a 3AW listener shows about five men involved in the fight, with several punches swung as security try to pull them apart.

“The fighting had stopped a short time later.

“There were no injuries and no formal complaints received.”

81,408 racegoers were at Flemington yesterday.

A total of six punters were arrested — four were drunk, one was caught with drugs, and one person was arrested on an outstanding warrant.
