Police are due to speak with staff at a Kmart store in Hamilton after staff members were assaulted by at least two women allegedly trying to leave the store without paying for goods.
In a video posted to Facebook, security staff can be seen wrestling with one woman pulling a young female security officer's hair.
Another woman - armed with kitchen tongs - uses them to stab the back of the young female security staffer before stabbing a male staff member trying to stop her from taking goods out of the store.
A member of the public, wearing a red hat, steps in trying to help as the first woman continues to pull at the young security guard's hair.
