There was a brawl just outside the Ilford station at 7:50pm. I could see an argument between 1 black guy and like 10 afghan looking guys so in the beginning it was 1 black guy vs 10 - 13 afghan looking guys until the backup came. I didn't know how it started because I was on the other side waiting for a bus but afterwards they started taunting each other and trying to throw punches at each other. One of the black guys brought out a machete or it might have been a zombie knife it was some big knife and one of the other guys had a bat and they also started throwing bottles at the black guys and the black guys ran once they saw the police coming. The black guy was going into their faces trying to start a fight I think they might have said something to him that triggered it.
