In oakland for several years now. Sometimes its one car performing as you can see there. Sometimes two or three. And there was a crowd of about one to two hundred people watching. Its dangerous. Those cars can easily veer out of control into the crowd. Where were the police . First we saw a few patrol cars standing by. Then more cars arrived blocking in everybody at the scene both spectators and those doing the sideshow and then some people tried to flee. It looks like they used a red van to smash through a cyclone fence near the Railroad Tracks and got caught on the fence. Then you see some people there trying to help free it. We also spotted a car on fire at one point and not sure how that started. We know again that several people were arrested but police have not yet released the numbers. If you search youtube you will find a number of amateur videos of these types of events but this was an especially large gathering. Frank . I guess so.

They have about 10. 5 hours before the store opens up here. You can see the blankets and campfire and people are just real comfortable and trying to stay warm out here. You dont have to necessarily come out here to get some of these good deals. Retailers are trying to let some of these deals go out early. You can get some of these deals days ahead of time.

Um, now what, um, growing up, you know what, hearing parents say hey, you know what you need to find your own thing, you need to follow your own path and you find something you love doing, you do it. Reporter and researchers have found that half the people come out here to save money. The other half come out here to spend time with friends and family. So thats the saying, go for it, to each his own. Why not . So with the economy on the upswing, how much more are shoppers expected to spend compared to last year . Reporter you know, so they are thinking it will be a two to four percent bump this year over last year. One important thing to consider is just because you expand the window of black friday deals, that does not necessarily mean that people spend more money. It just means you have to work harder to capture a lot of that market share before they spend money elsewhere. Kiet do, kpix 5. I guess theres a science to it.

Looks like they tried to use the red van to smash through a fence near the Railroad Tracks. That van got caught in the fence and some tried to help free it. We also spotted that car on fire at one point. Not sure how that started. We do know that several people were arrested but police have not yet released those numbers. The Highway Patrol did tweet this photo as they were processing some of the folks coming out of the sideshow. They also sent out this one.
