For its part, Riverchase Galleria of Alabama had to close its doors to the public 40 minutes earlier than expected due to a series of fights that broke out within the mall, reported al.com, a local media.
The traditional crowds that usually form outside the shopping centers at the opening of the shopping day in which Americans spend an average of USD 1,000 per person were decreased by an increase in online shopping and the initiative of some stores that opened their doors to the public last night.
