A video showing a woman using racist language towards a pub doorman is being investigated by police.

The clip, viewed more than two million times on social media, shows the woman swearing at the member of staff outside a Wetherspoon in Birmingham before shoving him and walking away.

More racist language is then directed at the bouncer and she is seen spitting in his direction.

A woman has been arrested on suspicion of racial abuse, police said.

The 24-year-old, from Worcester, was detained on Monday afternoon after she went to a police station at the force's request.

West Midlands Police said she was also accused of racially abusing another man and damaging furniture inside the pub.
