A huge mall fight took place in Cordova Mall, Pensacola, Florida at Christmas 2019. A group of 10 Black teenagers took part in a mass brawl, with Christmas Shopper Families around them, including vulnerable infants visiting Santa’s Grotto.

The brawl appears to have involved around ten teenage boys, and to have broken out at the edge of a Santa’s grotto display laid out on a huge red carpet across the mall’s central walkway.

The teens can be seen crashing into the display, knocking through a false iron railing and a huge potted plant.

Staff and customers were terrified that the low-impulse control teens might have guns

Tamori Jackson, who worked at a kiosk next to where the fight broke out, said:
“I thought there was going to be gunshots in the mall.”
“I saw people praying under the kiosk because they were scared.”
By the time Police arrived the teens had fled

During the fight fathers desperately created a human barrier to protect their kids from getting hit by the Black fighters.

In January Pensacola Police announced they had arrested 19 year old Trenton Newkirk and were searching for Keiondre Mathis in relation to the Mall fight.
