I love a stampede

Since Ikea is the greatest place in the world, there was a stampede at the opening of one of their new stores in London. After thousands of people arrived in 40 minutes, the store closed. They had been planning to stay open for twenty-four hours.
Because of theirs and others' hunger for bargains, six people wound up in the hospital, five stampede victims and one who was the victim of a stabbing. People abandoned their cars in the middle of a road nearby to walk to the store.
