A homeless man is caught on camera attacking several bystanders with a large pipe in Denver.

DENVER (KABC) -- A homeless man was caught on camera swinging a large pipe, smashing people in a terrifying rampage.

Video of the man attacking people with the PVC pipe at downtown Denver's popular 16th Street Mall was posted to Facebook by Caleb Bonham on Wednesday.

The enraged man violently attacked anyone who came near him, even lunging at people.

The man was eventually tackled by officers and subdued.

Two people were possibly injured, but refused treatment, according to Denver police.

Denver's police chief said more transients have flooded into Colorado because marijuana is now legal in that state.
