Boston police are seeking a woman they say physically assaulted a security guard as she shoplifted from the Back Bay CVS store.

Police got a call a little after 5 p.m. Thursday reporting an assault and battery in progress at the CVS at 587 Boylston St. in Back Bay. When they arrived, the suspect was gone but officers were told what happened: A woman, who police describe as black and in her 30s, entered the store, took some merchandise and physically assaulted a security guard before exiting. She fled in an unknown direction.

Security images shared by the Boston Police Department depict a woman with curly hair wearing a cropped white T-shirt, light gray sweatpants, a black backpack and a red hooded sweatshirt which she was wearing only by the hood.

Police ask that anyone who recognizes this suspect to contact detectives anonymously through the city’s CrimeStoppers program by calling 1-800-494-TIPS (8477), texting the word “TIP” to CRIME (27463), or by submitting information through the CrimeStopers website at https://police.boston.gov/crimestoppers/.
