N-DUBZ’s Dappy has been filmed in an altercation with Spanish police outside an Ibiza nightclub where his friends appear to have been struck with truncheons.
Clenching a giant bottle of vodka, Dappy, 36, blared his group’s latest hit The Ick from a white Lamborghini as a group around him sang along.
In a clip posted to his Instagram page, the rapper and the group, which also included bandmate Fazer and YouTube star Yung Filly, huddled around the car as they sang to the latest release.
As the group continued to enjoy themselves, a police siren could be heard in the distance, disrupting the group’s revelry.
Baton-wielding police were filmed arriving at the scene as they ordered the group away before they were then filmed using the truncheons.

This is met with cries of shock from the rest of the group, who appeared to have been pushed back from the road.
Dappy – whose real name is Costadinos Contostavlos – and his friends were then shown jumping into the white Lamborghini and driving away from the Spanish law enforcement.
One of the officers uses his baton again, striking the back of luxury sports car as it drives off. Again, some the remaining group, which includes the person filming, let out an audible shock.
Following the two videos which he posted to his Instagram account with over 370,000 followers, Dappy also shared two images of his friends which garish red marks on their backs.
Both marks are shaped as though they were inflicted by a baton.
It is not clear what caused the initial confrontation, or why officers initially took issue with the group.

Dappy posted the series of clips and images with the caption: ‘Watch til the end… TRIGGER WARNING Who are the real criminals here?!’
Young Filly commented on the post, expressing his fury with the police. ‘Had to ruin our mood we was drunk and happy kmt,’ the YouTuber said, noting his anger as he used the abbreviation for ‘kiss my teeth’.
Following the incident, Fazer also posted one of the clips to his Instagram page, where he said he was ‘racially abused and assaulted’, and called the N-word.
‘Trigger warning. I wasn’t gonna post this, but most people wouldn’t understand how it is to be racially abused and assaulted!!,’ Fazer said.
‘But to have it done by the law is something else! Thank you Spain, but how you gonna explain this one? man got caught calling me a N***** in 4k.’
Dappy also replied to Fazer’s post: ‘Brooooo this angle 🙁 thing is, me and fazer parked up da lambs and rannnn back for dem but we saw waps on hips so we did da right thing. If that was in da uk, we woulda SMOKED dem [sic].’
