Authorities have released new photos of a mother who allegedly dragged an 81-year-old woman to the ground by her hair last month after an argument outside an Upper West Side movie theater, where they were waiting to see "Dumbo."

No new details of the case were released along with the photo Monday. Police are still looking for the woman pictured in surveillance video (above) in the March 30 attack on the elderly woman.

Authorities have said the 81-year-old woman was waiting in line at the AMC 84th Street 6 around 3:40 p.m. that day when a mom and her two kids cut the line, the 81-year-old, who declined to give her name, told News 4.

When the 81-year-old tapped the womans daughter to let them know there was a line, the woman got upset, she said.

“I went like this, just the gentlest, touch, I just went like that to her daughter,” the 81-year-old said, making a tapping gesture. “Well she… became so violent. I was just like, shocked.”

The woman apologized to the mom, but the mom didnt take kindly to the gesture, she said. The mom started screaming, and eventually attacked her.

“She said, Oh yeah? And then I felt somebody come behind me and grab onto my hair, and just fling me down backwards,” the 81-year-old recalled.
