LOS ANGELES -- It's not unusual to fight for a good bargain during the holiday shopping season. It's a whole different story when the fighting starts in the parking lot outside the store.

That's what authorities say happened this week at the Cidatel Outlets in Commerce about 5 p.m. when a group of people attacked a 19-year-old woman over a parking spot and then stole her mother's purse in the middle of the brawl.
