Black Friday Madness: People Shot, Mall Brawls, Chaos Over Towels?

Americans now expect two things from Black Friday: crazy bargains and crazed people. Though a vast majority of Americans manage to remain decent and self-controlled, along with all the doorbusting deals of Black Friday, come the stories of mayhem and madness of shoppers going barbarian over a video game console or a plastic princess playset. Reports are starting to come in, and this year has seen some particularly disturbing, as well as hilarious, moments.

So far at least two people have been reportedly shot because of Black Friday madness. A New Jersey CBS-affiliate reports that a shopper was shot and killed outside a Macy’s department store at Atlantic City’s Hamilton Mall. Though the police have not provided many details, CBS 3’s Trang Do reports that the shooting outside the store resulted in the death of one unidentified person.
