Authorities released surveillance videos of the woman using a baseball bat to smash the windows after learning the her favourite New York eatery eatery had run out of her preferred item.

Police say the woman at the Back Home restaurant in the Morrisania neighbourhood arrived in the afternoon and ordered a patty, but when she was informed they had run out, she got upset.

They say she left and came back to the Jamaican restaurant with the bat.
