Brawls Break Out over Black Friday Deals

By Published on November 27, 2015

Frenzied Black Friday shoppers scrapped in Kentucky over sneakers and squared off over TVs in Texas, marking a violent start to the holiday shopping season.

Video shows a wild brawl between two men at the Mall St. Matthews in Louisville that lasted at least 20 punch-filled seconds before security broke it up on Thanksgiving night.

Elsewhere in the Bluegrass State, teens duked it out — supposedly over a pair of Air Jordan kicks — at the Florence Mall, footage uploaded to Twitter shows.

“When someone takes the last pair of Jordan’s on Black Friday,” user @NSudenga wrote.

In El Paso, mob rule reigned at a Walmart, where at least two women exchanged blows jostling over discount TVs, footage posted on Live Leak showed.

And the annual Black Friday scrums might have even spawned its own art form.

Video purportedly out of Saginaw, Mich., shows a woman snatching a vegetable steamer out of a little girl’s arms. Online commenters are calling the footage staged.
