The frenzy for bargains has once again boiled over in shopping malls across America overnight and this morning. And once again, smart phone videos documented the punches, kicks and screams of outraged shoppers.
For starters, in an anonymous video identified as having been shot in Saginaw, Mich., a woman can be seen wrenching a box from a child during a mad rush at a store.
However, social media sites are accusing the clip of being faked, pointing out that the child and mother appear to be holding boxes before the store opened its doors and the amount of boxes still available on the floor.
In another video, two men were seen in a fist fight at the Mall St. Matthews in Louisville, Kentucky, in a food court fight on Thanksgiving night. The unidentified pair were caught on camera by onlookers as they punched each other, knocking one woman to the floor until a police officer broke up the fight.
The words "World Star" references a hip-hop website that creates compilations of fight videos.
At the El Paso, Texas Walmart, videos also show shoppers scrambling to grab low-priced televisions. One man in a hat and light blue shirt appeared to swing at a cop, and then later was seen face down on the store floor, being handcuffed. WARNING: Inappropriate language.
