QUEENS — Maybe she needs some decaf.

Police are looking for a woman they say threw coffee in another woman’s face, and then slugged her on an F train in Forest Hills.

The brew-haha took place on Wednesday, April 2, around 6 p.m. on a Queens-bound F train at the 71st.-Continental Aves. station, police said.

Police released a photo of the suspect who they say punched the 53-year-old victim in the face, after throwing coffee at her.

The suspect, authorities said, became angry after the woman bumped into her on the train.

The victim suffered minor injuries, police said.

The suspect is described as being approximately 5-foot-1. She was wearing a black jacket at the time of the incident.
