Tucson police are searching for a woman linked to an assault on a taxi cab driver.

An arrest warrant was issued for Alexis Balbastro, 20, according to a Tucson Police Department tweet Thursday.  

Two weeks ago police arrested Richard Godoy, 26, in connection with the assault on the cab driver, and the carjacking of the cab.

Godoy was taken into custody in the 4600 block of East 19th Street after several hours of negotiations with officers, authorities said.

Investigators ask that anyone with information on Balbastro's whereabouts call 911 or 88-CRIME.
