Can you dig it? Construction warriors battle in bulldozers

Two rival construction companies engaged in a street battle in China as they faced off with heavy plant bulldozers over an alleged dispute over clients.

The construction conflict took place last weekend and saw the six bulldozers clash in a street in Xingtang county in Hebei province.

The battle is reminiscent of a destruction derby video game as the metal clashed and a cloud of dust envelops the scene.

Crowds gathered along the street to watch the warring machines, with the footage captured on video showing two of the diggers striking each other with their shovels, before one is toppled over.

Cars using the road were forced to avoid the two bulldozers as they duked it out with their front shovels.

A third truck can be seen arriving in the background, before another two join in the battle.

The driver of the toppled vehicle managed to free himself from the cabin and jump into another bulldozer presumably to re-join the battle.

It is still unknown at this point which companies were involved. The incident was confirmed by the Hebei Province Public Security Bureau who said an investigation was taking place to determine who was involved.

As well as the obvious damage to the heavy plant vehicles, it is thought that a number of injuries were sustained in the skirmish. It is believed that the incident only ended once the local police arrived.

Tensions may have been high amongst the rival construction firms, as China’s construction industry growth has dropped significantly in recent years. It would appear that the two companies competing over business might have been the most likely cause of the clash.
