Investigators have released this brutal surveillance video of a Bronx bodega brawl last month in an attempt to track down the woman who viciously beat and disfigured the unidentified victim seen here. Police are on the lookout for Britney Sanders, 24, allegedly seen in this video pummeling another woman with the help of two accomplices inside a bodega in Mott Haven about 12:45 p.m. on March 22nd.
It's unclear what sparked the fight, but one of the assailants slashed the victim with a jagged piece of metal. Police tell the Daily News she was taken to Lincoln Hospital, where she was treated for her wounds. However, the attack left her face permanently scarred.
Investigators say Sanders is about 5-foot-4 and 125 pounds with black hair and brown eyes and has a tattoo of eyes on her lower back. So if you get close enough to Sanders that her lower back eyes are staring you down, it's probably best to back quietly away, and then call NYPD's Crime Stoppers tip line at (800) 577-TIPS.
