This is the bizarre moment a woman pretends to faint after she and her daughter were accused of coronavirus stockpiling by a security guard. 
The women were at an Asda in Roehampton, London, on Saturday and the altercation is believed to have erupted over an argument about the pair being restricted on the number of purchases they could make in the store as supermarkets try and combat stockpiling.   
In the surreal video, the mother dramatically 'faints' and cries out as if she is pain in a bid to get the Asda security guard into trouble - after he tries to escort the pair out. But everyone, including her own daughter, looks on in bemusement.

When the bewildered staff and her daughter see her mother lying 'injured' on the floor, the woman starts holding her chest in false agony and moaning wildly.
