Police shut down a suburban shopping mall Saturday after screaming fans of the boy band B5 rushed the stage during a free concert, grabbing at the band members’ clothing and overwhelming the small team of security guards.

“Things were falling off the stage, girls were falling off the stage, girls started fighting,” said Theresa Curtis, who was working at a store near the stage.

Some of the girls grabbed one of the boys in the band, said Tamy Johnson, another store employee. “He ran to the back. Another boy, he just ran. Security escorted some of the boys out the back,” she said.

Four people were treated at a hospital for minor injuries, and five others were treated at the mall, police said. There were no arrests.

More than 2,000 fans, mostly teenage girls, had converged on Brookdale Center mall for the show, sponsored by the local Radio Disney station, KDIZ-AM. The band had made it to the second song when the chaos broke out.

“It just seemed like a girl frenzy,” said Christopher Taykalo of Radio Disney.

The 10 mall security guards assigned to the concert and the radio station staff were overwhelmed.

Seventy officers from 23 area Minneapolis-area communities responded to the chaos. It took about 15 minutes for them to get the crowd under control and another 30 minutes to clear out the mall. The mall reopened later Saturday evening.

“I’ve never seen anything like it in my life,” Jennifer Fullbright, 49, of Cottage Grove, told the Star Tribune of Minneapolis. She had brought her daughter and her friend to the see the band.

Curtis said her store took in a few girls who had lost their parents amid the ruckus.

B5 is a group of five brothers from Atlanta Dustin, Patrick, Kelly, Bryan and Carnell Breeding ages 10 to 17. Their debut album, “All I Do,” came out this summer, and they toured with the BET cable network’s “Scream Tour IV.”

Why? I don’t get this whole situation. Are girls conditioned from watching clips of the Beatles on Ed Sullivan at an early age? Wait these girls have no idea who the hell the Beatles are.

I just don’t get why the get whipped into a frenzy? Are these dudes coated in some type of phermone? (yeah I probably didn’t spell that right but I am too lazy to write this in word first…. I don’t really have a reason why I just am)

Actually come to think about it some females have some rather odd actions that I don’t think men really don’t do. This whole screaming thing at boys bands is one. The whole mauling people and running over them for the day after thanksgiving day sales… I don’t get it… So that cheap ass DVD player is on sale for $19 is it really worth pushing and shoving people to get it?

I guess $19 is the price for human dignity.

I don’t get the appeal of Ellen.. In general I think women comedians aren’t very funny. Sarah Silverman is funny… Rita Rudner, Margaret Cho, etc.. etc… are not… Ellen who has a tinge of self deprication to her style still isn’t very funny to me.

I actually watched about ten minutes of her show the other day, and I just wanted to put my head into the oven. It’s like a late night show without any real humor. It’s so hard to explain. For this episode it was viewer choice day. They got to pick out what she had to wear throughout the show. So she had on a cape, boots, a ruffly shirt, and to top it of … *gasp* it is so funny I don’t think can go on… a captians hat. The crowd was eating it up… I just don’t get it.

Martha Stewart, no matter how frigid she is, I get… At least you can pick stuff up from it. Oprah, I get… barely but I get. Dr. Phil, I detest, but I get…

Shows like Ellen and Rosie when it was on there air I totally don’t get…

Speaking of daytime tv I still can’t figure out if [tag]Kelly Ripa[/tag] is hot or not… She is very orange.
