Woman accused of assaulting Superlo security guard

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Police have released a photo of a woman who allegedly punched a Superlo Foods security guard who tried to stop a shoplifter.

MPD said the female security guard saw a woman hiding items inside the store on Spottswood Avenue.

The guard said another woman, wearing a blue shirt and black pants, asked why she was taking a photo and punched her in the face.

If you recognize the woman in the blue shirt or have any information that could help investigators, you are urged to call CrimeStoppers at (901)528-CASH.

Last month, police arrested a woman for purse snatching at the same East Memphis Superlo.
