Denver police have arrested a woman accused of biting two people in the neck at a convenience store.

The bizarre attack occurred at 10:30 p.m. Nov. 7.

Police said a woman entered the Barn Store at Tower Road near Green Valley Ranch Boulevard and approached a male customer.

She then groped him and bit him on the neck, according to police.

The woman then approached the clerk at the convenience store and asked her for a hug.

When the clerk leaned over the counter to give her a hug, the woman bit the clerk on the neck, police said.
