A woman who claimed to be an Egyptian goddess has been arrested after she demolished a restaurant and attacked police.
Emily Thomas Lochten, 26, from Boynton Beach, in Florida, US, was taken into custody after going on the rampage at the Havana 1957 Cuban Cuisine restaurant in Miami Beach, on Sunday afternoon, December 11.
Witnesses claimed that the self-proclaimed goddess had arrived by car, and stopped her vehicle mid-traffic, where she began screaming and slamming the bonnets of random cars driving by.
She then parked her car and went to the nearby Cuban restaurant where she started slamming tables and throwing dishes and cups at customers.
The restaurant's manager claimed that he had asked her to leave, but she instead slapped his hand and continued to throw a tantrum.
An officer who found himself at the scene then attempted to apprehend Lochten, but she violently resisted and became "aggressive and hostile" towards him.
She then slapped him in the face and yelled: "Don't touch me!"
The police officer then unsuccessfully tried to subdue her with his stun gun, before another colleague came to his aid.
Authorities said that during the arrest attempt, Lochten had claimed she was related to late rapper Tupac Shakur, and was also "A God from ancient Egypt who could take on all of us."
Lochten who reportedly had "unusual strength" from what authorities believed was "an unknown substance", then tried to hit the second officer as well, but he dodged her assault.
Shortly after multiple officers finally managed to handcuff the 26-year-old woman, who was then restrained on a stretcher brought by local firefighters.
She was then transported to Mount Sinai Medical Center for medical checks before she was finally brought to the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center.
She now faces charges of battery on a police officer, resisting an officer with violence, assault on a police officer, resisting an officer without violence and disorderly conduct at an establishment.
A $10,000 (£8,100) bond has been set for her release.
