Police are asking for the public's help in identifying a woman who allegedly flipped over tables and bit an employee at a Boston restaurant on Sunday night.

Boston police said they received a call around 6 p.m. Sunday for a woman at Don Tequeño y Doña Arepa restaurant located at 491 Blue Hill Avenue who had become irate. The woman had reportedly flipped over tables and caused damage to the lower half of the restaurant's glass front door. She also bit a male employee on his arm when he attempted to keep her from entering the kitchen area.

The woman ran off before police arrived, but investigators said there is surveillance footage of the incident.

It appears the restaurant wasn’t her only stop.  The people in the barbershop down Blue Hill Avenue said she ripped down some of the outside lights on their window before moving on.  The manager of the liquor store on the corner told us he is not surprised by this.

"Not often but it happens," Ivan Payampa said.  

People here say overall it’s a good neighborhood.

"Like I usually don’t hear anything too crazy up here.  Maybe like a couple of fights but not someone physically biting someone," Jaquana Jackson, who lives in the area, said.

Police released three images of the woman they are looking for. They have not said what, if any, charges she might face.
