Woman arrested after Detroit toy giveaway leads to brawl

DETROIT (AP) — A 39-year-old woman is accused of pulling a knife on  another woman during a brawl at a Christmas toy giveaway in Detroit.

WXYZ-TV and WWJ-AM estimate that a few hundred people were waiting in  line on the city’s northwest side Saturday night when the fight between  adults broke out.

No injuries have been reported.

WXYZ-TV reports that the woman was arrested and the two children who  were with her were collected by relatives from a police precinct.

Giveaway organizer John Cromer told the television station that  “people are already under a lot of stress and tension this time of year”  and “all it takes (is) for some people to step on somebody’s shoes or  to bump into somebody the wrong way and then a fight ensues.”
