The post was shared over 6,000 times, officials said.
Police then secured warrants for the woman's arrest. On Thursday, College Park Police found the 22-year-old at her job and arrested her. She's now accused of aggravated assault and robbery
Authorities said the investigation is still active at this time. Police are asking anyone with information about the attack, or if they know the identity of additional suspects to call the Tybee Police Department at (912)786-5600.
