The store clerk said a woman came into the business and stood near the checkout center for about 15 minutes without making a purchase.
The clerk asked the woman to make a purchase of step outside, which caused the woman to become angry. They then began arguing.
The argument then escalated when the woman picked up a plastic cigarette display case and threw it at the clerk, striking her in the arm.
Before exiting the store, the woman knocked over a scratch off lottery ticket display. She ran away and was last seen walking westbound on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.
