'This whole situation was crazy': Mall shut down over brawl involving several hundred people

The Connecticut Post Mall was cleared out by police after hundreds of people were involved in a fight that extended throughout the mall.

The fight, which started Thursday evening, began in the food court but spread throughout the mall and outside, according to authorities. “This whole situation was crazy,” Monae Moye, a New Haven resident, told News 8. “They were fighting in the food court … All I saw was somebody, they swung and hit somebody in the head, and that person just fell out. It was like they hit them so hard. It was so crazy.”
