‘Nightmare': Aussies in shock over state of Kmart store

Aussies have been left shocked after bearing witness to the 'feral' state of the shoe section at a Kmart store in Sydney. In a clip posted to social media, shoppers labelled the mess a 'nightmare' and demanded to know 'what is going on?' with the chain retailer. The footage, which has been viewed nearly 30,000 times, shows an aisle at the Paramatta store completely covered in boots and other footwear – to the point where the ground was invisible. Captioned: 'One wrong step and you're buried in $7 boots', hundreds of pairs could be seen stacked on top of each other, making the aisle unwalkable. Viewers were quick to share their own experiences with the retailer, with many describing it as an everyday occurrence. 'I was literally there today and it was a f**king nightmare!' one said. 'I work at Kmart and it sucks,' one employee weighed in. 'Why is every Kmart in Australia like this??!! Those poor staff,' said another. 'I used to work around that area years ago and the amount of times people just threw stuff on the floor or wedged the items between the racks infuriates the ex retail worker in me,' empathised a fourth. Kmart did not respond to in time for publication. The incident came less a month after a group of teens were slammed for their 'stupid' behaviour inside an Adelaide Kmart. The clip, which was viewed over 900,000 times, saw a prankster teen approaching a man in the store and asking him the time before pretending to take money from him via Apple Pay. The prank, coined the 'Apple Pay' prank, has been circulating TikTok over the last few days. The goal is to elicit some kind of extreme response from the target for the sake of a viral video. Viewers were quick to label the prank as 'dangerous and embarrassing'. 'This is a dangerous thing to do in Australia,' one person said.

NEWS OF THE WEEK: Jamie Foxx has brutally lashed out at Sean ‘Diddy' Combs while delivering a stand-up routine

The 57-year-old Hollywood star has berated 55-year-old Combs amid his ongoing sex trafficking trial - while the pair are known to have tension between them. Appearing at Netflix's All-Star Comedy Night last week, Foxx ruthlessly mocked Combs over his ongoing trial and the lurid alleged details of his sex life that have emerged since the singer was arrested last September. Foxx said, per the New York Post, "That Diddy s**t is crazy, huh? I don't know if he's going to jail, but he's a nasty motherf**ker.'

Nationwide rallies call for justice after death of Indigenous man in custody in the Northern Territory

Warning: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander readers are advised this article contains reference to Indigenous people who have died. Australians across the country have flocked to the streets to demand justice following the death of an Indigenous man in police custody in the Northern Territory. A 24-year-old man was restrained by two police officers at an Alice Springs Coles on May 27. Police said there had been reports of an altercation between the man and a security guard. He stopped breathing while on the ground at the shopping centre, and he died about an hour after he was restrained, the NT News reported. There have been 12 Indigenous deaths in custody this year, while there have been 597 since the establishment of the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody in 1987. A string of rallies have been planned across the country following the 24-year-old's death, demanding an investigation independent of the NT Police force, for CCTV and body cam footage to be released to the man's family, and a public apology from NT Police. Crowds gathered outside Town Hall in Sydney's CBD on Saturday night, holding up Indigenous flags. Signs printed with 'Stop black deaths in custody' were also held up among the large crowd. Police could be seen on horseback at the protest. Lawyer George Newhouse, representing the man's family, said he was 'angry there are mothers grieving' in the Northern Territory, according to reports by the ABC. 'I am angry there was a disabled young man calling out for his mother in Coles last week,' Mr Newhouse told the crowd. An organiser of the Sydney rally, Paul Silva, called for justice in a post to Instagram. 'We demand truth. We demand accountability. We demand justice,' Mr Silva posted. Independent senator Lidia Thorpe called for justice for the 24-year-old in a post to X on Friday. 'Justice for Warlpiri Mob, and the Yuendumu community, who are grieving yet another young man's life taken,' Ms Thorpe wrote. 'No one should live in fear of being killed by police and in prisons.'
