In one video, crowd safety staff chase down a patron, throw him against the wall and a security guard appears to kick him in the head while he is on the ground.

One security guard features in several clips taken by punters, appearing to throw plenty of punches.

Two patrons were arrested for unrelated incidents, and the crowd controllers were questioned before their supervisor packed some of them onto a bus and ordered them to leave.

"Summernats and security contractor Red Dawn have already begun an investigation into the incident involving security staff and patrons on Saturday afternoon," the festival organisers said in a statement.
