78-year-old woman hurt in Black Friday frenzy

CENTENNIAL - Terry Borowsky had never shopped on Black Friday before. So, she and her daughter thought they would give it a shot. But, for Borowski, it was over before it started.

"It happened so fast. I was just pushed to the ground," Borowski said.

The 78-year-old woman was trying to get in line at midnight at the Toys 'R' Us on County Line Road across from Park Meadows Mall.

Investigators with the Arapahoe County Sheriff's Department say shoppers started arguing before the store opened as people jockeyed for line position. Deputies say some shoppers were pushing each other when a woman was pushed into Borowski.

The thing that most upsets Borowski and her daughter is what happened after her fall.

"I saw my mom just kinda down on the ground," said daughter Lori Mule. "The manager of Toys 'R' Us was standing right there letting in people and I said to him to please can you help us?"

They both say the manager ignored them.

"Not a thing, not a thing. He was just letting people into the store," said Borowski. "He could've stopped the line for a minute and just asked me if I was alright."

Borowski says her wrist is sore and starting to bruise. She says her hip, thigh, and shoulder are hurt. She went to see a doctor Friday afternoon.

The manager at Toys 'R' Us did not want to comment. The corporate office of Toys 'R' Us did not return a call for comment.

When asked if she was thinking about filing a lawsuit, she said she has not thought about it.

"Above all, I'm just shocked at the indifference," said Mule.
