A woman is wanted after she assaulted a sheriff’s deputy on Christmas at a St. Louis City gas station.
The deputy was working security at the Shell Gas Station on N. Tucker Boulevard when the suspect entered the business without wearing a mask. The deputy says the suspect became belligerent when she was told she could not enter the business without a mask.
The suspect pushed the deputy as she exited the store and then began striking the victim with a closed fist.
The suspect took the deputy’s baton and then struck her multiple times, causing a concussion.
