Videos showed the man — named in clips as Toby — running down the street with arms flailing.

At one point the wild marine was bundled into the back of a Tuk Tuk on the crowded street.

Another clip showed the commando grabbing a moped driver in traffic and appearing to bite his neck before a pair of uniformed policeman hauled him off.

Cops hauled the marine over to a metal fence where a comrade appeared to try and calm him.

A second marine, whose shirt was open, said: “Toby, they are not going to let this go, mate.”

The UK troops are part of the Littoral Strike Group and have been docked in Chennai since last week.

A Royal Navy spokesman said there is an investigation, adding: “We can confirm an incident involving UK service personnel in Chennai, India.”

The marines were marched back to their ship but none of them were arrested.
