Several members of the Harlem community in New York City rallied on Saturday in support of a Black woman who was attacked outside of a liquor store on Jan. 18.
The 31-year-old woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, had entered a Harlem liquor store to make a purchase when three young men asked her to retrieve liquor for them, according to ABC News. After politely declining to do so, she was followed and subsequently attacked right outside of the store.
A surveillance camera captured the attack. The woman says she was punched, kicked and her face was bitten. “I was mauled, this is more than being bitten,” she said.
Another post shared by the restaurant’s Instagram account shared more details of the unfortunate event. The eatery was prepared to celebrate the winter holidays on social media before the crime shifted its upload plans.
“Today we were gonna post an uplifting Holiday message since it’s 2 days before Christmas, but instead we’re posting about the robbery that took place at Ponty Bistro early this morning,” the caption stated.
“This saddens us on so many levels not just to the damage and loss to us and our business, but to the individuals who felt they needed to rob & destroy a neighborhood establishment because times are tough and people are desperate.
