The two clips recorded on Thursday, totaling 58 seconds in total, show the man trying to staunch walk and then fight a security guard near the entrance of the Tesco.
It is not clear what has caused the fight or precipitated the videos.
The man on a rampage takes multiple big swings at the security guard who wisely backs away and doesn’t retaliate other than to push the pest away when he gets too close.
The man can be heard swearing at the guard while shoppers and other workers in the store watch and then follow the action as it heads around the vege aisle.
At the beginning of the second clip, the rampaging man tries to throw a 24-box of Coke Zero cans at the security guard.
But, just after that missile, the man is taken down by a member of the public who runs in from a blind spot and pulls the man down.
The shopper throws the pest onto his back where the much larger and stronger have-a-go hero then holds him down with his hands on his neck.
“Stay f****** down, there’s kids in here mate,” the man can be heard shouting at the pest.
The rampager can then be heard pleading “get me out, get me out, get me out” from being held by the shopper.
The shopper then flips him over to his front and holds the man down by his neck, before trying to push him away.
The man on the rampage then has enough strength to get back up and walk away, just as the security guard tries to kick his feet out from underneath him.
The video then ends with the man walking off towards the front of the store to collect his jacket.
Hampshire police said they attended the bust-up on Thursday after being called at 6.03 pm.
“A 29-year-old man from Havant has been arrested on suspicion of assault occasioning actual bodily harm, racially aggravated assault occasioning actual bodily harm, theft from a shop and possession of a controlled drug of class B.”
The Sun understands Tesco is assisting the police investigation.
