Watch: Man Gets Brutal Beating By Security Outside Paceville Clubs
Content warning: this article contains distressing footage of violence
A man got a brutal beating outside clubs in the busy streets of Paceville by alleged security, footage sent to Lovin Malta shows.
Witnesses to the distressing scene recount the man, who is allegedly a foreigner, being hit with bats and stomped on violently, including on his face, by five bouncers on New Year’s Eve just passed midnight.
“I only witnessed him running away from the bouncers but when they caught him he didn’t resist at all and yet they held him and beat him up. This is all I know, I didn’t see where he ran from or why it happened,” one of three witnesses told Lovin Malta.
“But the bouncers are treating that man horribly. No matter what the situation was there are protocols and if you notice, the bouncer keeps his leg on that guy and trash talks. If this is how they are allowed to solve fights then I don’t think we are safe anywhere.”
“That man was beaten up even after he didn’t resist them.”
Lovin Malta reached out to the police to confirm the report, as well as the details of this incident, and the newsroom is awaiting a response. As of now, the club at which the security work is unknown – as is the man’s condition.
