A nightclub popular with celebrities and frequented by Prince Harry has been forced to shut for two weeks, and risks losing its licence, after a mass brawl in the street.

Boujis in Kensington, west London, was ordered to shut its doors after the fight involving at least 16 people in the early hours of 25 October, according to the London Evening Standard.

Images from mobile phone footage shot by one of the club’s managers show one person being thrown and sprawling across a car bonnet as others trade blows. People are filmed kicking and punching each other, with the violence continuing even after police intervene.

Seven people were arrested and issued with fixed penalty notices, and police asked Kensington and Chelsea council to review the club’s licence.
