The actress rushed out of her £1million home in pink jogging bottoms as violence flared outside.
The shocking footage then shows the star exchanging blows on the street in a posh Manchester suburb.
A source told The Sun last night: “Tina came out to break things off – but eventually joined in. At one point, it ended up being three on one with Tina and two girls against that other girl.
“She hit with her hands, and she herself received several blows.

“Watching her on Coronation Street, you wouldn’t think in a million years that she would get involved in something like this, especially in such a public place.”
The fight is believed to have broken out between two groups of teenage girls near Tina’s home in Bramhall, where she allegedly had problems.
A video obtained by The Sun then shows the actress grabbing one and telling it: “Get out of the fucking house.”
A separate clip shows Tina confronting another young man, said to be around 15 years old.
The actress, who plays Sarah Barlow in the ITV soap, can be heard saying: “Stop, I just said ‘Stop’.” As the girl throws out another teenager, Tina grabs her, punches her and hits her in the head.
Tina, wearing a striped top, is then punched and pulled by the hair before another teenage girl joins the fray.
The star and two others were also seen pushing the girl against the VW.

Our source added: “When you see Tina on a soap opera and then you see this video — it’s not what you would expect from her.
“It’s shocking that she was caught fighting with 15-year-olds.
“You also wouldn’t expect this to happen on that road, because it’s a really posh street in a nice area.”
Tina, who joined Corrie as Sarah Platt when she was 16, lives in a cul-de-sac with her husband Adam Crofts and their two children.

The violence broke out last Friday night about 10 feet from her driveway, while another fight took place 20 feet away.
A source close to the actress said she was “deeply disturbed” by the incident – and reported it to the police herself.
A relative of one of the girls also reported it to the police.
The source continued: “Tina has been plagued by problems near her home and on this occasion she came out to try to solve it.
“Some of the girls traveled to her road and were close to her house so she felt she was defending herself and her home.”
Tina, who has twice been crowned Best Actress at the Inside Soap Awards, shared pictures of her luxurious home and spacious garden online.

The star married personal trainer Adam at Manchester’s luxury King Street Townhouse on New Year’s Eve 2018, and the couple have a son, Beau.
Tina also has a 15-year-old daughter – Scarlett – with former Corrie star Ryan Thomas, with whom she was in a relationship from 2003 to 2009.
Scarlett plays Izzy Charles in the BBC drama Waterloo Road. Tina starred in Corrie from 1999 to 2008 and then took a break, during which she starred in Waterloo Road.
She also appeared on Strictly, where she came fourth with American dance partner Jared Murillo in 2010.
ATTACKS ON EX’S ENGINE

TINA O’Brien is accused of smashing her ex Ryan Thomas’ Range Rover with a baseball bat after a late-night argument two years ago.
The Sun revealed the wing mirror had been removed from the engine and its paint scratched during the 1am breakdown.
The couple started dating in 2003 when they were both starring in Corrie and have a daughter, Scarlett. But then they had a “breakable relationship” after their split in 2009.
Tempers were said to have flared after Tina was at a party with friends and Ryan went to meet her.
A source said at the time: “It was quite a disturbing incident and Ryan drove away as soon as he could. He is furious.”
Ryan, 39, played Jason Grimshaw in Corrie until 2016. He has since retired from acting.
Tina returned to Corrie in 2015. She previously praised Adam — who she started dating in 2014 — as “my everything”.
She wrote in 2022: “You are amazing and you inspire me to be better, bolder and braver. Thank you for being my mentor without even knowing you were.”
She also posted pictures of herself with Scarlett, calling her “my absolute best friend”.
Greater Manchester Police said: “Officers are investigating reports of an assault in Stockport between 8pm and 9pm on March 15.”
A spokesperson for the actress said: “Tina was the victim of an unprovoked incident outside her home which she reported to the police.”
