Windsor police are looking for a female suspect after she allegedly assaulted an employee at a downtown bar.

Officers responded to a report of a physical assault at a licensed establishment in the 500 block of Ouellette Avenue on Jan. 22.

Investigators determined that on Jan. 13, a woman inside the bar confronted a male patron over a shirt he was wearing. After the patron left, the suspect began recording a female employee and accused her of supporting the message on the patron’s clothing.

When the suspect was told to leave, police say she assaulted the employee by striking her multiple times in the face with her knee and then fled on foot.

Police say the victim sustained non-life-threatening physical injuries.

The suspect is described as a white female, approximately 35 to 45 years of age, with brown hair and brown eyes.
