(CNN) A man in Doral, Florida, escaped from a mall store with stolen goods on Saturday by spraying everyone in his way with bear repellent, according to police. At least 30 people required treatment for their injuries, Doral Police spokesman Rey Valdes told CNN. About 15 of the mace victims were employees of Bath and Body Works at Miami International Mall. One had to be taken to the hospital after taking a direct hit of spray to the face, according to Valdes. Police noted the seriousness of the attack, as each sickened person could be considered a victim of aggravated battery.
