COMIC star Eddie Izzard went for a jog and ran straight into a street brawl in London’s East End.
The 47-year-old TV and stand-up comedian stepped in to break up the fight outside a pub in Whitechapel.
He was running by when he saw a man being kicked in the head by another and decided to stop it, according to a witness.
Police arrived and took away a man wearing baseball-cap. No one was charged.
Eddie just happened to be passing and wanted to help out, according to his spokesman.
