By the time employees realized Brown didn't have any cash to pay, police said, she already had taken off in the limo.

That's when angry customers, realizing they weren't getting free coats, began throwing merchandise on the floor and grabbing clothes without paying for them, Nace said.

"Everybody was like, 'I still want my free stuff,' and that started the riot," he said. "It looks like (Hurricane) Katrina went through the store."

Yikes.

What's wrong with these people? You don't loot the store because someone else committed fraud.

What I wonder is if she was just trying to pull a hoax or is insane and actually believed she won the lottery?

Agreed, what a bunch of scumbags along with the lady who caused it.
