Galveston (Texas/USA) - At the end of a cruise , travelers should actually be relaxed. In Texas, the exact opposite was the case for some. Shortly after the ship docked, a mass brawl suddenly broke out.

The incident occurred on Saturday at the end of a seven-day Carnival Cruise cruise, as reported by People magazine .

The ship docked in Galveston in the US state of Texas and suddenly passengers started hitting each other.

A total of 24 passengers are said to have been involved. They have since been placed on the company's "Do Not Sail" list, meaning they will no longer be allowed to take part in future trips.

A video shared by a user on Facebook shows the chaotic scenes.

A group of several aggressive passengers can be seen, with various people attacking each other. It then appears that the group has turned on one man in particular, who is already lying on the ground.

Security forces arrive to bring the situation under control, but the rioting crowd doesn't seem to mind.

The reason for the brawl has not yet been clarified. "We will not tolerate such behavior," Carnival said in a statement.
