Two Chinese traffic policewomen who indulged in a "no-holds barred" fist fight at a busy intersection in a northern Chinese city were today fired.
The policewomen duo were dismissed after being caught on camera fighting in the middle of an intersection on July 8, the Beijing Times reported.
The shocking video which went viral showed the two women exchanging blows near a departmental store amid traffic during duty hours.
