"Someone just threw two red smoke bombs into the restaurant I was eating in. Eyes are burning. #NYCWHAT," the former Charmed star tweeted Friday.

The New York City Police Department has since released video of the suspect, who surfaced from a nearby subway grate. He was wearing an American flag t-shirt and a baseball cap.
