Video of the Day: Screaming Mobs Fight Over...

A video posted to YouTube Thursday appears to show a screaming mob fighting over flat-screen televisions at a Wal-Mart in North Carolina during the retailer's Black Friday sales.

The video shows at least 50 people crowded around the televisions, when several people start pushing and shoving each other, with one man throwing another to the ground. A woman's voice is heard repeatedly screaming "Oh my God!"

Several police officers stood nearby but didn't intervene. Eventually, a Wal-Mart worker appeared to break up the fight.
