Woman Throws Public Tantrum at NY Convenience Store Over Coffee

People take their coffee very seriously.

Well tell that to this lady. CBS is reporting that Suffolk County police are looking for a woman they say caused hundreds of dollars worth of damage after she threw her coffee in a cashier's direction.

The iced coffee ruined $200 dollars worth of cigarettes near the cashier's counter. We suppose if you're a staunch anti-tobacco type, then she may have unintentionally done the world favor. But that's not the point.

Police say the incident happened on August 30 at a 7-Eleven in Mastic, though the surveillance footage of the coffee tantrum was just released Thursday.

Police say the coffee bandit left the Long Island convenience store in a black GMC Yukon with New Jersey plates. One could say she presumably went to find cheaper coffee, though last we checked...7-Eleven coffee wasn't that expensive.

Folks in New York are known to be on the go, so they don't have time to waste, especially at  in-and-out type stores, and fast food establishments. In May, a Capital Region woman pulled a gun on McDonald's employees because she thought they were taking to long with french fries.
