NORTH MIAMI BEACH, Fla. \u2014 A woman is facing multiple charges for attacking a Jewish man sitting at an in-store Starbucks at a Target in North Miami Beach over the weekend, according to police.<\/p>\n
North Miami Beach police said the attack happened at around 2:40 p.m. Sunday at the Target at 14075 Biscayne Blvd. and was motivated by hatred.<\/p>\n
An arrest report states that Chyvonne Juanita Palmer, 43, of North Miami, \u201csuddenly stood up\u201d and approached the man, who was wearing a yarmulke and sitting on the opposite side of the Starbucks seating area, \u201cand began screaming and yelling at him.\u201d<\/p>\n
Police said Palmer hit him twice with a cellphone and returned to her seat. But they said she got back up again and, this time, wielded a metal chair as she went back to the victim.<\/p>\n
According to the report, a witness told officers that Palmer tried to strike the victim and \u201crepeatedly shouted \u2018I hate them.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
The witness, along with another woman, intervened to stop the would-be chair beating, police said, with one of them ushering the victim into the men\u2019s bathroom to safety.<\/p>\n
Police took Palmer into custody on charges of aggravated battery, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon with prejudice and disorderly conduct.<\/p>\n
In the report, they said that “officers attempted to speak to Palmer; however, her statements were inconsistent and unrelated to the circumstances. She continually talked about an unknown female wanting to attack.”<\/p>\n
Online records show that Palmer was being held in the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center with a bond listed as \u201cto be set\u201d as of Monday morning.<\/p>\n
