#New Jersey woman arrested for attacking Staples customer over mask dispute

New Jersey police on Tuesday arrested a woman who allegedly attacked a shopper when the person asked her to properly wear her face mask in a Staples store, a report said.

Terri Thomas, 25, was charged with aggravated assault in the July 29 encounter at a Hackensack location that left the 54-year-old victim with a broken leg, NJ.com reported, citing police.

Thomas allegedly snapped when she was asked by the victim, who was using the copy machine, to cover her nose with the mask, police had said.

Cops last Friday released video of the incident showing the victim using her cane to try to fend off Thomas before getting tossed to the ground.
