Woman Injured at Clarksville Toys R Us

Black Friday turned bloody Friday for a Clarksville woman at Toys R Us. The 32-year-old woman was in line at midnight waiting for her chance at an amazing deal. When the doors opened, the crowd jumped forward, knocking her to the ground, and trampling her. Several people trampled her causing a swollen and bleeding right knee. The crowd’s apparent disregard for the safety of others could have turned even more serious. Last year a person was killed in New York in a similar accident. Luckily this case did not have the same result. The Tennesseean reports:

The woman, 32, was in line at the store at about midnight when the front doors were momentarily opened, according to a Clarksville Police report filed today.

The crowd waiting for the store to open for Black Friday sales surged forward, and the woman fell to the ground. She was trampled by several people and suffered a swollen and bleeding right knee, the report said.

This woman could have a case against those who harmed her or perhaps even the store for not taking greater steps to prevent injury. Hopefully she has a speedy and full recovery.
