LOS ANGELES – A
woman shot pepper spray to keep shoppers from merchandise she wanted
during a Black Friday sale, and 20 people suffered minor injuries,
authorities said.
The incident occurred shortly after 10:20
p.m. Thursday in a crowded Los Angeles-area Walmart as shoppers hungry
for deals were let inside the store.
Police said the suspect shot the pepper spray when the coverings over the items she wanted were removed.
