Search is for knife-wielding woman who threatened Pompano Beach restaurant worker
A knife-wielding woman was caught on camera threatening a Pompano Beach restaurant employee last week.
It happened Wednesday, May 14, just before 10 p.m., at a Snappers restaurant on Dr. Martin Luther King Boulevard.
According to the Broward Sheriff's Office, witnesses said she was acting strangely.
First, according to BSO, she told workers she was there to pick up an Uber order. However, there was no order for her. Then, after using the restroom, she went up to a table where people were eating and placed her hands on their food, according to the sheriff's office.
Surveillance video shows the woman then going to the counter and wiping it down with a wet cloth. As employees called for help and locked the front door, the video shows the woman pulling a knife from inside her hoodie as she yells at the employees to open the door. When they refused, she went up to a worker, put the knife to his face and demanded that he open the door.
He did and the woman left the restaurant.
The sheriff's office has released the video in hopes that someone recognizes her.
Anyone with information is urged to give them a call at (954) 321-4236 or contact Broward Crime Stoppers at 954-493-TIPS (8477), online at browardcrimestoppers.org, or dial **TIPS (8477) from any cellphone.

Driver crashes into T-Mobile store after medical emergency, MDSO says
A driver in his 70s was taken to the hospital Friday morning after crashing his car into a T-Mobile store, according to the Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office. Deputies said the man had gone to the store to pay his bill when he experienced a medical emergency and accidentally hit the gas pedal instead of the brake, sending his vehicle into the middle of the store. "It was just chaos, everybody was scared, everybody was wondering what was going on," said Felix Morales, who told CBS News Miami he works at a warehouse behind the store and heard the crash. "Poof, like glass, and I said whoa, that's kind of weird, and that's what made me come over here," Morales said. No one else injured Xavier Thompson, who works nearby, said no one was injured inside the store because it had not yet opened. "As far as the T-Mobile people said, they were in the back. Nobody was inside. It happened prior to the five minutes when they open," Thompson told CBS News Miami. Monica Rodriguez, another nearby worker, said she was worried for the man. "I was concerned for him because I was like, oh my God, what happened, I hope he's okay," Rodriguez said. Man expected to recover Authorities said the man is expected to recover. The store was deemed unsafe by the county and there is no word on when it will reopen. CBS News Miami reported that cleanup crews spent the day working to remove the vehicle and assess the damage, which included shattered glass and a damaged entrance. The door frame remained intact. T-Mobile did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
