Eyewitnesses report that the conflict began when hawkers, struggling to find spots to sell their goods, set up shop in spaces typically reserved for taxis. Taxi drivers, angered by the disruption to their operations, demanded that the hawkers move elsewhere, leading to a heated exchange that quickly escalated into a physical fight.
“It was absolute mayhem,” said one witness. “People were throwing punches, and the crowd just kept growing. It was hard to tell who was fighting who.”
Local authorities were called to the scene to restore order. While no serious injuries have been reported so far, the incident highlights the growing tension over shared public spaces in the bustling city center.
