A worker died after being trampled and a woman miscarried when hundreds of shoppers smashed through the doors of a Long Island Wal-Mart Friday morning, witnesses said.
The unidentified worker, employed as an overnight stock clerk, tried to hold back the unruly crowds just after the Valley Stream store opened at 5 a.m.
Witnesses said the surging throngs of shoppers knocked the man down. He fell and was stepped on. As he gasped for air, shoppers ran over and around him.
"He was bum-rushed by 200 people," said Jimmy Overby, 43, a co-worker. "They took the doors off the hinges. He was trampled and killed in front of me. They took me down too...I literally had to fight people off my back."

Seriously?? Is that high def TV so important to you that you would trample someone in order to get your hands on it? Are you going to kick back in your comfy sofa and enjoy your HDTV with some popcorn while another family grieves this Christmas? I hope it was worth it.
Dirtbags! Some people just don't know how to control themselves.
