Wal-Mart Worker Killed when Stampede of Black Friday Shoppers Storm Store

A Wal-Mart employee in Long Island, NY was killed on Friday morning as he opened the door to the store for Black Friday shoppers.

 

The 34-year-old employee at the Green Acres Mall shopping center reportedly went to open the doors for the throng of shoppers waiting outside and upon unlocking the doors a sea of shoppers trampled the man as they rushed into the store.

 

Black Friday is the unofficial kick-off to the holiday season and several stores hold special deals in the early hours, encouraging shoppers to camp outside the stores to be the first inside.

 

According to witnesses at the Long Island Wal-Mart the worker was instantly knocked down and a surge of shoppers poured through the doors, trampling him and causing fatal injuries.
