Air Jordans lead to scuffles around country,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Scuffles broke out and police were brought in to quell unrest that nearly turned into riots across the nation Friday following the release of Nike's new basketball shoes - a retro model of one of the most popular Air Jordans ever made,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
The mayhem stretched from the Bay Area to New Jersey. No injuries were reported and the firing was apparently accidental,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but police said a 24-year-old was taken into custody.
In suburban Seattle,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], police used pepper spray on about 20 customers who started fighting at the Westfield Southcenter mall. He said it started as fighting and pushing among people in line and escalated.
Murphy said no injuries were reported,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], although some people suffered cuts or scrapes from fights. As the crowds kept growing through the night,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], they became more unruly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], leading to vandalism,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], violence and arrests.
The frenzy over Air Jordans has been dangerous in the past. Some people were mugged or even killed for early versions of the shoe,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], created by Nike Inc. in 1984.
The Air Jordan has since been a consistent hit with sneaker fans,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], spawning a subculture of collectors willing to wait hours to buy the latest pair. Some collectors save the shoes for special occasions or never take them out of the box.
Nike issued a statement in response to the violence that said: "Consumer safety and security is of paramount importance,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. We encourage anyone wishing to purchase our product to do so in a respectful and safe manner,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]."
