A hate-filled woman was busted by police Thursday for allegedly going on an anti-Asian assault spree in Queens that left four people injured – including a 75-year-old woman she clobbered with a hammer.
Maricia Bell, a 25-year-old woman from Utopia, was arrested on hate crimes charges for carrying out the racist attacks over the past two months, police said.
The first incident took place on May 23 at around 9 p.m. when Bell punched a 24-year-old Asian man inside a parking lot, located at the rear of 71-43 Kissena Blvd., and ran off with his glasses.
