West Bend - One person was injured early this morning outside the Wal-Mart department store in West Bend when a crowd of about 50 people congregated outside the store for a chance to buy one of 10 coveted video game systems the store has for sale.

Police have provided details of the incident late this morning:

An assistant store manager announced to the crowd, which had formed about 7 a.m., that the store expected to receive only 10 of the Sony Playstation 3 game consoles, and that they would become available at 12:01 a.m. Friday.

The store official placed 10 chairs outside of the store, and directed the waiting customers to another area. At a signal, the customers were told to run to try to occupy one of the chairs. During the contest, a 19-year-old man ran into a pole and struck his head, injuring himself. He was taken to a local hospital for treatment.

Police said the case was one of helping an injured person, and was not the subject of any criminal investigation.
