Tempers Flare In Holiday Shopping Lines

Hundreds waited outside the Altamonte Mall for their holiday shopping to begin.

The mall opened at 1 a.m., and eager shoppers tired to push their way into the one open door at Macy's.


"Back up! Back up! Back up!" one mall worker warned as crowds flooded toward the doors.

"Somebody's going to get killed out there," one shopper told mall security.

"They pushed everybody and, oh, it was bad, people were fighting each other. There was a pregnant lady and they pushed her. Then somebody got in fights over the kids, pushing the kids. They pushed me into the door. It was like you were a pancake," shopper Christiana Doroteo said.
