Bank Holiday clubbers were treated for burns after a mass acid attack at a London nightclub.
At least 12 people were injured after the "acidic substance" was flung inside Mangle in Dalston, East London, early on Monday after a fight between two groups broke out inside the venue, police said.
Hundreds of people were evacuated from the club and roads were closed as emergency services, including a hazardous area response team, rushed to the scene.
The London Ambulance Service (LAS) took 10 patients to hospital, while police said a further two people with similar injuries went to hospital themselves.
Scotland Yard said two men, both aged in their 20s, are in a serious but stable condition.

Police said they believe two groups of clubbers were embroiled in a row inside the nightclub which led to a man throwing the unidentified substance, thought to be acidic.
A manager of a bar near the club told his staff there had been an acid attack which had left a girl burnt on her face and arm.
Another witness described seeing a group pouring bottles of water over what appeared to be an injured friend.

An LFB spokeswoman said: "The only information that we have is that it was an unknown corrosive substance thrown within the nightclub.
"It was identified by a PH paper test as a strong acidic substance."
Twelve people had symptoms attributed to a corrosive substance, she added.
Video footage showed the venue's corridors filled with clubbers wrapped in medical blankets, while fire officers filed past.

Many of the people were sat on blankets which had been laid on the concrete floor and outside, the road was packed with ambulances.
Nima Navazande, 30, works at the nearby Martello Hall bar, and took over from his manager for the morning shift.
He said: "My manager told me that around one o'clock they heard somebody saying that someone was attacked with liquid acid and there was a girl who had half her arm and her face burnt.

"My manager had to lock the doors and stay indoors to make sure nobody got in or out."
Another witness, who asked not to be named, said: "In the party in the basement there were girls making noise, I saw their friends ordering a bottle of water - they were putting it on them, they were splashing it on their faces."
The witness added: "It was like a war - the police were everywhere."
Another tweeted: "Scary scenes in Hackney tonight, we have heard reports of chemical burns of people in the building here."
Police remained at the scene on Monday morning but no arrests have been made.
A tenant at flats overlooking the nightclub described confusion as crowds of revellers were moved up the street after the venue was evacuated.
The woman, who asked not to be named, said: "It happened so fast, they rushed people out, I thought it was a stabbing because all I heard was 'move, move, move - move out of the area'."
She added: "The area was closed off and police vans were there.
"The security were telling the crowd to go down that way - people on this side were waiting to go home but they couldn't go home because the road was closed.
"People were confused."

A Scotland Yard spokesman said: "Detectives are investigating an incident in which acid was sprayed inside licensed premises in Hackney.
"Police were called to the premises in Sidworth Street, Dalston, at approximately 1:10am on Monday after members of the public complained of a noxious substance.
"London Fire Brigade and London Ambulance Service were also called to the scene.
"A total of 12 people attended hospital suffering burns. Ten people were taken by ambulance and two people presented themselves at an east London hospital.
"Two of those injured; both men aged in their 20s - remain in a serious but stable condition. The others were treated for minor injuries.
"Around 200 people had left the premises before the arrival of emergency services, with a further 400 evacuated from the building."
Police added there was no evidence to suggest the attack was gang-related.
It comes just over a week after a father, mother and their two-year-old son suffered burns after a strong acid was thrown on them in nearby Islington, north London.
No arrests have been made following the assault on the family at the junction of Copenhagen Street and Caledonian Road at around 1.05pm on April 8.
