This is the woman suspected of splitting open the scalps of three NYPD cops during a series of violent clashes sparked by a "unity" march across the Brooklyn Bridge Wednesday, The Post has learned.
The woman was busted around 5 a.m. Thursday, sources said, when cops investigated a strong smell of marijuana coming from a car near City Hall, where anti-police activists have been gathering in recent weeks.
The cops recognized the woman from a video clip of the cane attack on the bridge and another that shows the assailant climbing over a walkway fence and sprinting away amid Brooklyn-bound traffic, sources said.
The suspect allegedly hit an NYPD sergeant and tried to bite one of the cops on the head while being taken into custody.

Cops found pot in her car and she allegedly made statements about wanting to kill herself, sources said. The woman was brought to the 5th Precinct station house in Lower Manhattan, where she was escorted out in handcuffs and leg irons and put into an ambulance shortly after noon.
Exclusive video shows that although her wrists were shackled behind her back, she managed to work her hands around to flip the bird at Post journalists.
Asked to explain her alleged actions on the bridge, the woman — who wore a shirt saying "WANTED" in yellow letters — denied any involvement in Wednesday's incident.
"I didn't attack nobody," she said.
The woman — who had a sock on her left foot and nothing on her right — was taken to Mount Sinai Beth Israel hospital for a preliminary psychiatric exam, sources said.
She was brought back to the station house about 90 minutes later, but didn't say anything on her way inside.
Charges against her were pending, sources said.

What are the odds this animal never gets punished in Bill de Blasio's NYC?
The beat goes on and the violence continues in liberal cities
Trump and his supporters are off topic
"Another peaceful march"
Bill De Blasio
"I didn't attack nobody," she said."
Which means she attacked somebody..........................LOL
Looking at the picture, I'm in a quandary! Are they sure that is a female?
It's so confusing!
First thoughts? That's Antoine Dodson.
I had to look up who that was......As I look, it could be..
Will they go with the insanity defense?
Or will they just forget the whole thing?
Can you imagine if one of the cops struck back??? That would be termination/arrest & prosecution in the fast lane!
Given the skin color of this thing, it would mean more "peaceful" protests and blathering on by the usual suspects.
In keeping with the theme of "peaceful protests" there is this update:
"Surveillance video from outside City Hall appears to show protesters receiving a small shipment of bats before anti-cops activists clashed with officers on the Brooklyn Bridge Wednesday morning.
The delivery was made by a car parked on the street near City Hall, with one man seen retrieving six bats from the trunk, according to the footage provided by sources.
Police sources said the bats were delivered so the anti-cop activists could confront a “unity” rally proceeding over the Brooklyn Bridge into Manhattan."

It seems that De Blasio is not supporting his cops. One of these days the ladies and men of the NYPD are going to had their fill of this BS and rebel.
Ya, I'm kinda getting that impression as well. First he ushers in a no bail law which puts criminals right back out on the streets, then he has the NYPD subject itself to being doused with water. He clearly has them standing down midst all the violence and now he most recently signed a bill that bans the use of chokeholds, enhances the right of citizens to record police activity, requires NYPD to expose their surveillance technologies and rules that all NYPD officers have their shield number and rank designations visible at all times while on the job.
That doesn't help to protect citizens and it makes police accountable for every move they make. It does help radical leftists & thugs feel good.
