Their beef came with a side of violence.
The NYPD seeks the public’s help in finding two individuals who attacked patrons at Flushing restaurants in a pair of unrelated assaults that occurred in recent weeks.
Regarding the first case, police identified the suspect behind the April 11 stabbing of a 40-year-old man inside Wai Lou Restaurant located at 135-21 40th Rd.
At about 3:35 p.m. on April 11, authorities said, Da Bao Huang got into a verbal dispute with the victim for reasons that remain under investigation. The argument turned physical when Huang allegedly displayed a knife and slashed the man in the neck and right hand.
The victim brought himself to a local hospital for treatment of his injuries, which were not life-threatening.
In the second case, police said, an unidentified female attacked another woman with a beer bottle inside the Beijing Style BBQ restaurant located at 41-83 Bowne St. at 11:45 p.m. on the night of May 30.
According to law enforcement sources, the suspect — described as an Asian female standing 5 foot 5 inches tall and weighing 130 pounds — became engaged in a verbal argument with the victim, a 44-year-old woman. Moments later, the suspect picked up a beer bottle and struck the woman in the face, then left the restaurant.
Paramedics brought the victim to a local hospital for treatment of her injuries, including a black eye and bruises. None of her injuries were life-threatening.
Both incidents were reported to the 109th Precinct; the investigations are ongoing.
