BLOOMINGTON — The Mall of America has broken its Black Friday record for shoppers, thanks to a midnight opening.

Mall spokeswoman Bridget Jewell said 210,000 visitors came through the doors Friday. That breaks the Bloomington mall’s Black Friday record of 200,000 shoppers set last year.

For the first time, the Mall of America opened Black Friday shopping at midnight. More than 120 stores at the mall opened at midnight.

BLOOMINGTON — Local police and Mall of America security kept close watch Friday on anti-Wall Street protesters who bought copies of Republican Michele Bachmann’s memoir so they could approach the hometown presidential candidate during a book signing.

No arrests or major disruptions were reported during the roughly two hours Bachmann was signing her “Core of Conviction” autobiography in a sequestered area of the megamall. At least a dozen members from the Minnesota offshoot of the Occupy Wall Street movement paid the $23.13 for the book so they could meet the congresswoman face to face.
