A funeral service in Veracruz, Mexico, turned chaotic when two women began fighting near a coffin after discovering they had both been in relationships with the same man, according to reports and video circulating online, as reported by The New York Post.

The altercation occurred during a wake for the deceased man, described in reports as having maintained relationships with both women at the same time.

The incident was captured on video and later shared widely across social media platforms, drawing attention to the unusual circumstances surrounding the confrontation.
