    Script:

    An annual charity ice hockey game between police and firefighters in New York erupted into a mass brawl on Sunday.

    Every year, the New York Police Department and the Fire Department of New York get together for a friendly ice hockey game, all in the name of charity.

    However, this year's match was overshadowed by a huge fight between the two teams during the second period in Long Island.

    According to the website, the event is 'all about coming together to enjoy sportsmanship and helping others.'

    Players from both sides cleared the bench to join the brawl, which left the ice littered with hockey sticks and gloves.

    The only two players who didn't appear to be involved were the goalkeepers. The pair stood together in the middle of the rink watching the chaos going on around them.

    The fight caused a 25-minute delay as players were penalised and equipment picked up off the ice.

    New York Police Department eventually won the game 8-5.
