I was at Mervyns, shopping with my dad, and a little girl got her hair stuck in the down escalator. And we had problems getting it shut off. And she started screaming each time a stair came down, hitting her on the head. Then her sister started screaming, then her grandmother...
And a huge crowd kinda surged forward, crowding around.
I immediately ran to the shoe department, notified them that someone was hurt, but no one could get through the crowd.
So I yelled "EVERYONE BACK UP AND GIVE SOME ROOM!"
And, surprisingly, people did.
Apparently I still have the drum major voice. And my Mervyns emergency training.
The little girl is alright. Not wonderful. Her hair was cut off, and she was bleeding a bit from the head, but she was able to walk upstairs to first aid with no problem. She was bawling, though.
