bumrush
Mob storms in
Bumrush (also bum-rush or bum rush) means to rush or charge at someone or something aggressively, often with the intent to force entry or overwhelm by sheer momentum.
Security guards worry about crowds trying to bumrush the stage.
The term originated in American slang, likely from the idea of ejecting an undesirable person (a "bum") from a venue.
As a noun, a bumrush is such an aggressive charge: The concert ended in chaos after a bumrush at the front gates.
