Police said the thieves cornered the family in San Antonio stealing a gold ring and chain.

It's believed one of the Brits was stabbed in the neck and another was hit in the head and on his back with the broken bottles.

The injuries were not thought to be life-threatening but all the men required medical treatment.

Two Senegalese nationals, aged 37 and 42, were later arrested on suspicion of robbery with violence, intimidation and stabbing with a knife.

The attack happened at about 2am near the Hotel Orvay in Formentera street in Ibiza.

It was witnessed by several other shocked tourists and then sparked a vicious street brawl which was captured on camera.

Footage shows a fight between two rival groups in the busy resort.

At one stage, a man in a red top picks up a chair and appears to use it as a weapon the another launches a flying kick.

The two groups square up to each other and punched are thrown in all directions.

Spanish newspaper Diario de Ibiza says the video was delivered to the police anonymously and helped lead to the two arrests.
