Street fighting

Street fighting is hand-to-hand combat in public places, between several people. The fight sometimes results in serious injury or even death. Some street fights are gang-related.
A usual situation might involve two people arguing in a bar. One steps outside. A fight begins.
Being involved in a street fight often results in public disorder. Any people fighting "may" be charged by the police. Practice varies between countries, and even between towns. If any injuries are caused in the fight, the severity of the injury may determine the sentence and fine of the participants.
A "bar fight", or "bar brawl", is a street fight which happens in bars or taverns.
