Video: Gunshots fired in the air during melee at amateur MMA show in Florida

Fans and fighters were sent scrambling at an amateur MMA event this past weekend when one attendee inexplicably began firing gunshots into the air.

Former UFC fighter and current Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship boxer Hector Lombard captured footage of the scary incident, which occurred at the Bamboo Room in Lake Worth Beach, Fla., this past Saturday.

The incident was first reported by TMZ.

According to Lombard, the gunfire was preceded by a cageside scuffle.

“This guy just shot his handgun in the middle of a melee at an amateur show,” Lombard wrote in an accompanying caption.
