UPDATED: Wal-Mart employee dies on Black Friday after being knocked down by shoppers
November 28, 2008 | 11:03 am

** UPDATE: Wal-Mart just released an updated statement from Hank Mullany, a senior vice president and president of the company's Northeast division. Itincludes this passage: "We expected a large crowd this morning and added additional internal security, additional third party security, additional storeassociates and we worked closely with the Nassau County Police. We also erected barricades. Despite all of our precautions, this unfortunate eventoccurred."

** UPDATE: A "personal dispute" at a Palm Desert Toys Us at 11:30 a.m. left two men dead from gunshot wounds. Read the full story here.

It's every Black Friday shopper's and security guard's worst nightmare.

Overeager shoppers jostling to get into a Wal-Mart on New York's Long Island trampled an employee to death this morning in the rush to snatch some gooddeals.

Also caught in that chaos at the Valley Stream, N.Y., store: a 28-year-old pregnant woman and at least three other shoppers who suffered minor injuries.

According to a police statement, the death happened at 5:03 a.m., minutes after Wal-Marts across the country opened their doors to the holiday rush.

The employee, a 34-year-old man, suffered "an undetermined death" when a "throng of shoppers ... physically broke down the doors, knocking himto the ground," according to the statement. He was declared dead at a nearby hospital at 6:03 a.m.

Wal-Mart was tight-lipped about the accident, saying in a statement that its officials are still working with Nassau County Police. The statement called thesituation "tragic," added that the employee was working for a temporary agency and confirmed that several customers were also injured.

At a Best Buy in the Glendale area this morning, frustration and impatience caused several small fights to break out in the crowd before doors opened,according to police officers patrolling the front of the store.

do these people (who line up 24-48hours) have real jobs and just take DAYS OFF or purely resellers?

Plan on going to BestBuy around 11 pm. If the line is too big, I'm leaving. I'm gonna do most of my shopping online though. Maybe head out to BellevueSquare around 10 or 11.

hey, speak on what you know--I live in a quiet suburb and it was pretty chill.

 

[extraordinary swag]

I did my shopping online already. Got a blu ray player for 149 with Watchmen for free and a rack of dvd's from Best Buy and Amazon. None of those deals inthe ads for Best Buy are worth getting up extra early and fighting a mob of people over. Plus all the hot products that are cheap have bad customer ratings.

 

[guttagetsbusy]

Yo tell me if this is true cuz my boy keep telling me this.

He says that you can go online to bestbuy and order the hp latop for 179 at midnight?

Is this true? I didnt even see it in the ads
