A BRAWL outside Poundland was broken up by police earlier this morning.

Officers were called after 8am today to reports of a fight between three men outside the bargain shop on Above Bar Street.

They have been in the area investigating the incident and no arrests have been made.

The fight comes as shoppers flocked to the city centre for Black Friday deals. 

Officers were also called just after 10am to a report of shoplifting from Card Factory on Above Bar Street.

A 20-year-old woman from Southampton was spoken to by officers and dealt with by way of a community resolution.
