Shocking moment mass brawl breaks out at Alabama high school after girl grabs another's hair and pounds her into the ground before others jump in

A now viral video shows a shocking brawl broke out at a high school in Alabama in which two women fought before a group of students jumped in.

The video comes from Huffman High School in Birmingham, one of the seven high schools in the state's largest city.

Two female students eye one another from the school lunchroom before one of them advances toward the other, as other students can be heard yelling in the background.

One of the students then grabs the other by the top of her hair and attempts to drag her by it, with a person behind the camera yelling expletives.

Several other teenagers can then be seen joining the mob, either to pull the two girls apart or get into the fracas themselves. 

An adult can finally be seen attempting to clear out the scene inside the lunchroom.

Before the video ends, one of the fighters can be seen being pulled away from the fight by several fellow students.

The school has yet to comment on the brawl, which went viral after it was posted by journalist Andy Ngo. Around 71 percent of students are economically disadvantaged and 99 percent are minorities, according to US News and World Report.

There's no word about any injuries suffered by any of the students involved in the fight. 

Huffman High School has been on edge in recent weeks after a 17-year-old student was fatally shot, according to WVTM. 

Officials say they found Adonnis Xavier Bishop McQueen lying in the middle of the road on November 12. McQueen was a senior at Huffman. 

Just a week ago, a similar brawl was seen at a North Carolina high school, leaving one student dead and another in hospital. 

One child, in a gray hoodie with a black jacket, backs another student in a red hoodie into a corner and then punches him repeatedly.

The pair run into the school gymnasium, followed by dozens of whooping and cheering students filming on their phones.

A brawl ensues, with one student on the ground pulling out a knife and stabbing another in the leg and groin.

As the children fled, no one was on the ground. But one of the students was later pronounced dead, and the second hospitalized.

Two ambulances were seen leaving Southeast Raleigh Magnet High School, each trailed by a police vehicle, early Monday afternoon.

Police say they arrested a suspect, but have not said what led to the fight and deadly incident. None of the names of the students involved have been released. 

The initial call came in at around 11am, when a school resource officer called for EMS and backup, saying a student had been stabbed. 

Shortly after, another student was found with injuries consistent with a stabbing.

'He's losing consciousness right now. We're in the main gym,' a woman's voice was heard saying over law enforcement radio traffic.

A male's voice said: 'Can you make sure the administrators put the school on lockdown?'

According to Raleigh police, a fight had broken out involving several students. The  incident was described as a 'serious assault' in a social media post.
