Door Buster Sales Legislation in the Works

December 15, 2008 (NewYorkInjuryNews.com - Injury News)

In response to the recent tragedy that occurred on Black Friday, in which droves of stampeding shoppers led to the trampling death of a Wal-Mart employee, City Councilman James Gennaro of Queens is proposing a bill which will require retailers to heighten security during big sales. This bill will also hold retailers liable for injuries which occur.

Jdimytai Damour, an employee, was killed at the Wal-Mart in Valley Stream, L.I., when the store opened its doors to hundreds of fervent Black Friday shoppers.

Although most stores take extra precautionary measures during a major sale, as a matter of practice, retailers are currently not required by law to do so.
