Dozens Injured In Stampede After Second Checkout In Lidl Opens
AMBULANCES are still at a Meath branch of Lidl this morning which was the scene of a near-tragic incident that left over thirty people injured, after a newly-opened checkout queue invoked a mass stampede.
Shoppers at the Lidl store in Dunboyne had been lined up at the single open checkout for nearly an hour at the time, as a member of staff manning the till slowly and methodically scanned in items at a glacial speed.
Unrest began to grow amongst the queuing crowd before murmuring that a second till was about to open began to circulate. In the end, all it took was a member of the Lidl staff to sit at the next till over and say “I’ll take you here now” to cause shoppers a rush to the new line, resulting in devastation as men, women and children became caught up in the crush.

Focus.
