NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- Chaotic video released Friday shows a man attacking a woman with an expandable baton as she fights another woman on a Queens street in a brawl that ended in a robbery.
The mayhem unfolded back on July 12, but police just released the video as they search for the man and woman seen assaulting the 21-year-old victim outside a tattoo shop in Flushing.
It appears some sort of confrontation inside the tattoo shop around 7 p.m. spilled outside.
Video shows the two women scuffling on the sidewalk before the man arrives with the baton and joins the fray, beating the victim mid-fight in broad daylight.
