This is the moment a bloodied father of a young girl drops dead in front of his screaming wife after being stabbed when he tried to stop a woman being beaten outside a nightclub.

Alpay Kalyon, aged 33, lost his life in the incident that took place in the town of Cesme in Turkey’s western Izmir Province on the night of 21st August.

Amateur footage filmed from the window of a building across the road shows several people brawling outside the venue.

The footage ends with the muscular Alpay in his bloodied t-shirt stumbling and collapsing to the ground amid his distraught wife’s screams.

Local media report that Alpay and his wife had gone to the club with two friends. The scuffle allegedly started when the couple stepped outside, saw a woman being beaten, and intervened.

Employees of the nightclub next door, whose initials have been given as FB, OG and MT, then got involved by saying “you can’t fight here”. During the melee, Alpay was stabbed in the chest.
