Police arrested a 32-year-old woman Monday after reportedly dousing Coffeyville restaurant patrons in soy sauce and chocolate milk.
Officers were called about 1 p.m. to the Yellow River Chinese Restaurant at Eleventh and Chestnut Street after the woman entered the restaurant, told guests to “go back to China” and flipped over the customers’ plates, according to Coffeyville police reports.
She also allegedly spat on a man and covered him and his baby with soy sauce.
Police arrived at the restaurant to find several people standing outside, covered in food, reports say.
The woman then slapped an officer trying to contact her on the arm.
Patron and Coffeyville resident, Mike Willis was eating dinner at the restaurant when the women entered.
"She came over to our table and took a shrimp roll right off my plate. She screaming about Chinese folks and I ain't even Asian. I'm African-American. She slapped me with my own food. How insulting", says Willis.
Yellow River owner, Zhang Wei, was understandably confused by the ordeal and temporally closed the restaurant to clean up the mess but expects to resume normal operation in time for the dinner crowd.
Police arrested and booked the unnamed woman for investigation of harassment and assault of an officer.
