NY Post
A deranged woman ferociously slapped a tourist inside a New York City pet store over the weekend after she was told to leave for kicking puppy kennels, according to shocking footage and cops.
The “unprovoked” attack on Saturday afternoon in Citipups in Chelsea left the victim, a woman visiting from Texas, with a bloody nose, the store manager told The Post as authorities were still seeking the suspect Tuesday.
Video captured by store manager Emilio Ortiz shows the disputative woman walking toward the exit before briefly turning to the tourist and smacking her on the side of the face. She then appeared to spit in the direction of the victim, the video shows.
“As she’s walking out, she slaps the s–t out of this lady,” Ortiz told The Post Tuesday. “Like, she slaps her really freaking hard.”
Ortiz provided new surveillance footage to The Post that shows the suspect initially causing trouble when she kicked the kennel a few times before she was confronted by an employee.
As she’s directed to leave, she then approached Ortiz, who was recording the incident, and tried to slap the phone out of his hand, the footage shows.
