Surveillance video shows man sucker-punch woman in face in apparent random attack in Miami

An investigation is underway in Miami after surveillance video showed the moment when a man walking down a sidewalk sucker-punched a woman walking in the opposite direction, knocking her to the ground.

The incident took place in front of Calle Ocho Sports Bar and Grill in Little Havana, and the owner spoke with CBS News Miami about the shocking attack.

"Once the officers got here, they started questioning her and she was in good hands at that point," Calle Ocho Sports Bar and Grill owner Monica Zapata said.

Zapata said that's when she checked her security cameras, and they captured the incident. She said she saw the man, who has since been identified as Tavaris Dewand Greene, walking in the opposite direction as the woman.

"She was walking normally. Calmly. She was minding her business," she said. "And he was walking in the opposite direction. Calmly and normally. It didn't look like anything was out of the ordinary. But all of a sudden, he pounces on her and he punches her. And he hit her so hard. And she just fell to the floor."

After the woman was punched, bystanders are seen coming to her aid and helping her off the ground and bringing her a chair as Zapata called 911.

Greene was later arrested and charged with felony battery.

No other information was released.
