On Thursday, police issued a news release about the attacks, which happened at about 8:20 a.m. on Thursday, Oct. 12.

The suspect approached three people and began to punch them repeatedly, police said.

“One of the victims, a 51-year-old female, was treated by EMS with non-life-threatening injuries,” police said. “The two other male victims did not require medical attention.

“The assaults are believed to be random and unprovoked.”

Police said they released a photo of the suspect in an effort to generate tips about her and where she may be. They described her as likely being between the ages of 18 and 25, with a medium build and long dark brown or red hair.

“She was wearing a white, open-chested shirt with long sleeves, black Nike sweatpants with a red swoosh on the left leg, and black runners,” police said. “She had an Atlanta Braves baseball hat with the letter ‘A’ on the front.”
