Three police officers were hurt while responding to an attack on a shop worker in north Belfast.
They were told at 8.10pm on Thursday a worker in Antrim Road had been attacked by a female customer and man, a PSNI spokeswoman said.
While being arrested, the woman “began lashing out at officers”, the force alleged.
The officers had injuries to their hands.
Police added: “The 43-year-old woman was subsequently arrested on suspicion of assault on police, criminal damage and possession of a class C drug and remains in custody at this time.”
