Vancouver received a taste of the madness that American’s are typically accustom to annually during Black Friday shopping.
On the night of November 25, the Adidas store on 848 Granville Street drew a large crowd for the anticipated release of limited-edition BAPE x adidas Originals Collection shoes.
As the crowd began to form larger and grew restless, a fight broke out involving a shirtless man who was seen using a belt to whip people.
The same man is seen being tackled from behind and eventually surrounded by the crowd.

No security was on site and the police were eventually called to the scene. The man was arrested on site.
Adidas ultimately cancelled their shoe sale but later raffled them off on November 26.
