It was a fight you might see on TV, but this one was in front of the Fairfax Walmart over TVs.

"Somebody was trying to steal something. She was fighting security and everything. We was trying to get somebody, somebody to help him," a woman told 911 dispatchers.

Customers called 911 on Friday night as a woman darted out of the store with TVs without paying for them, leading to a quarrel with a security guard

"His face. He got the crap beaten out of his face. I don't see any blood," a man told 911 dispatchers.

The man also told dispatchers the store security guard got maced by the woman.

Fairfax police said Taylor Burleigh put two TVs in a cart, shopped around the store for things such as mace and cosmetics, and then headed straight for the door.

But she didn't get past a security guard who police said recognized her from a prior attempt.

Video WLWT obtained showed the guard trying to stop her as she crashed a cart into a concrete post outside.

The two can be seen fighting over the TVs as customers come over to help before Burleigh ran off to a van.

Police stopped the van quickly after.
