LITHONIA, Ga. - The quest for some limited edition sneakers took an ugly turn early Friday morning outside the Mall at Stonecrest in Lithonia.
DeKalb police say several people have been arrested, including one woman who left two young children in her car, after the new Nike Air Jordan 11 "Concords" went on sale.
Hundreds of people began lining up in the early hours at the Mall at Stonecrest to get their hands on a pair of Nike's new Michael Jordan sneakers. Several stores inside the mall were offering the sneakers.
Apparently, some people could not wait until the mall opened its doors at 8 a.m. Police were called to the scene.
DeKalb police responded with as many as 20 squad cars after a large crowd apparently made an illegal entry into the mall, breaking down the door. Police escorted most of the people back outside. At least four people were arrested in that incident.
According to police, one woman left two young children in her car in the mall parking lot. Officers with DeKalb police had to break her car window to get the children out. They say the woman's car had been in the parking lot for quite a while.
Police waited for the woman to return to her car and when she did, she was arrested.
The woman told FOX 5 she was looking for her cousin and not buying sneakers. She says she did not know if her cousin was there to buy the sneakers.
However, several people told FOX 5 that she was there to purchase the sneakers.
The children -- a 5-year-old and a 1-year-old -- have been released to the woman's family and are ok.
