The woman dubbed SoHo Karen has been identified as Miya Ponsetto – who is believed to be a former cheerleader from California.

Ponsetto, 22, was named by The New York Post Thursday in connection with the incident involving a 14-year-old Black boy she falsely accused of stealing her iPhone.

She is said to be from Sun Valley and is believed to have gone to Simi Valley High School in California.

It comes after the NYPD released new surveillance footage of the woman tackling the teen to the ground in a New York City hotel.
