On April 25th, Key West police dealt with a bizarre case, a social media feud that turned into a brutal fight. >> We started arguing again and then she spit on me and I I I don't understand why I would have got spit on, but I did put my hands on her. >> Where she spit on you? Where did she spit on? >> It was like right here on my leg. >> She spit on your on your thigh. >> Yeah, like she went to go spit at me and I stepped back and that's whatever it spit right there. I wouldn't have never expected her to spit on me. They never expected us to fight or do nothing like that. >> Two former friends met, tore at each other's hair, and traded accusations. One claimed she was spat on and had her phone smashed. The other denied spitting, insisting she was attacked after asking her rival to leave her blue car. A petty online quarrel thus exploded into violence, requiring police to intervene. >> So, this red, you have red on your forehead here. Is that normal for you? >> No, it's this whole side. >> Okay. I could see like where it's like bruised, but you kind of have like blotchy redness and that's not normal. Okay, so I'm going to take some photographs of you. Okay. [Music] >> See the story from the beginning. It's >> the other girl in the purple shirt right there. She works for the state. what's going on. >> Um, I had was writing her earlier and she was asking me what my problem was and I just said that I did not >> She was what? >> Writing me on Instagram. Um, she was asking me what my problem was because I wasn't really talking to her and I just said that I didn't want to be friends. Like I just didn't want to be friends. That's all. There's no problem, nothing more. And then I came out over Instagram. >> Yeah, I have the messages on my phone and then So you were you were typing her telling her you didn't want to be friends on Instagram and then what happened? >> She wrote me and she asked me she said she asked me if I'm good and I said yes and she said it could be I don't know if you want to read them. Sorry my voice is shaky but basically I said I didn't want to be friends. You can read them later, but I said I didn't want to be friends. And I came out of work and she was sitting on the back of my car. >> Which one's your car? >> The blue one right there. And I have a video of her sitting on it when I'm walking out of work at 504. She's sitting on my car. She jumps down and I go over there. She's like, "So, what's up? What's all that [ __ ] you were talking?" I wasn't even saying anything in the messages. I told her, "Have a good day. Like, I don't want any issues." >> Yeah. >> And then I got a genuine ass friend. >> And then this is where she starts to hit me. going. >> I said I don't care. Like, leave me alone. Little bumb. >> Called me a dumbass [ __ ] >> [ __ ] only reason you smoke, drink, any of that. But your [ __ ] say none of that to me. >> Her in the brown shirt. >> I can't get into my door. And then she just starts hitting me and she says I spit on her. I'm not even the kind of person to spit on anyone in my life. Like >> what do you want done? >> I want to press charges. Like I work here and it's so embarrassing. All my freaking co-workers are out there. >> Where do you Where do you work? >> At the state. >> Okay. Do you have your ID yet? >> Um it's in the car. Each woman levels grave accusations against the other. One insists her phone was shattered, she was spat upon, and bears ocular wounds plainly observed by police. The other counters that they are colleagues, that the first unlawfully occupied her car, and upon being told to depart, attacked her instead, injuries which officers also documented. Crucially, this second lady wields damning evidence. A video she presented to authorities powerfully reinforcing her claims and casting the opposing account into profound doubt. >> Was anybody else here that witnessed it? >> Um, I mean, there was a lot of people cuz we just got off of work at 5:00. So, there was a lot of people that were out here. >> Okay. Is anybody that's out here now that you see that witnessed it? >> Uh-huh. >> All right. Ma'am, can you kind of go over there, please? >> There was a lady that was in that house. >> But I'm saying none of the people that you see here witnessed this. No, they left. >> If I can get your ID for me. >> Upon hearing the testimony of the woman in question, the police found themselves in dire need of corroborating witnesses. Individuals who could attest unequivocally to the occurrence of the incident. Although several women were employed alongside the victim within the same department, none could profess to having observed the episode firsthand. Ma'am, you need to put your phone down, please. >> Just put your phone down, please. >> Put your keys down, please. Okay. And step over here. Right here. Right there. So, thank you. I know. I know. I know. >> Thanks, bro. >> Okay, I'll get this back to you in just one second. Okay. So, just kind of hang out by your vehicle right now. >> Apologies if that's okay. >> Sure. Go ahead. >> Did any of you see anything that happened? >> None. I stood with >> I just came out. >> Okay. So, none of you saw Okay, that's okay. Ladies, hi. Did any of you happen to see anything that happened? No, >> we came up. We just walked out and we about work out, >> but it was uncalled for.

She um meets with her. They're kind of face to face. They're trying to talk. It gets heated. She spits on her. She hits her. And then they just gave >> So she alleges that she spit on her >> that she spit on her and that she struck her. She's not I asked her how she struck her. She's not telling me how she struck her. >> But she said that she did, you know, after getting on she did strike her. She said at one point she was holding her phone. She slapped the phone. She slapped her phone out of her hand causing it to break her phone. I'll set up. >> What do you mean? What do you have? So, she has a video where she just showed me real quick um that she came walking. She was waiting outside her driver's side door. Okay. >> Like this. Like you can see her waiting and she's like, you know, what's this about? You know, blah blah blah. Uh you know, talking [ __ ] or whatever, something to that effect. And then she's like, "Okay, get, you know, get away from my car." And then she did it. And then like the phone's kind of like here, so you can see like the legs. And then all of a sudden you hear like like scuffle. And that's when she said she started hitting there. She has a knot on her above her left eye. Is she wet or anywhere? >> She's I mean her face her face is all wet, >> but I mean where did she say she got spit up? >> She spit on her face. >> In her face. >> But she's also she's also got like a cut like right here next to her eye like you know kind of like either she had like Did she have glasses on in the video? >> No, you can't see her face in the video. You just see her you just see her from the waist down here. It looks like she was wearing glasses on. >> Did she give you her ID yet? >> No, I I haven't gotten her ID yet. Okay, let me get right. >> Miss, do you have identification on you? >> Um, no, sir. >> Do you have a Florida ID there? >> Yes. >> What is your name, please? >> Madison. >> Is Do you have a middle name? >> Mackenzie.

So, I texted her and I was like, "Are you good? What's going on? you I feel like you're being a little weird to me. And then she just started like going off and I was like, I'm not understanding why you feel like this way towards me. She wants to bring up like people and this and I was like, I'm not understanding when you know we both do this. So why is it a problem with me now and you haven't communicated this with me and we just kind of started going back and forth on the phone and this is genuinely like I have me I was literally I you're genuinely my friend. I and I want to know what is going on. >> Mhm. And so I came up here and as soon as walk up we start to argue. >> Am I running her real quick? And and this is the other party. >> Thank you. >> So of course we automatically just start arguing. Wasn't yelling or nothing. We were talking. >> So when you met here, you where did you meet? >> We were right here on the side. >> Right. Like right here where we're standing now or where exactly? >> So I was cuz I got off about 5 minutes before she did. So I stood out here. I was waiting. As soon as I seen her walk up, >> can you show me a little >> I was standing at the back of her car. Whenever she walked up, I was standing at the back of her car and we were walking with each other over to the side of her car and we stopped and we were like this face to face because we were kind of arguing side to side and I was like, "What is really going on?" >> Where did you stop? >> We were right there on like the little like basically right there at the yellow line. We like we walked around the car cuz I was on >> I guess it be like this side of the car and she walked up this side next to me and we're walking at each other like this and then we meet each other like this. >> Okay. And we started arguing again. And then she spit on me. And I I I don't understand why I would have got spit on, but I did put my hands on her. >> Where she spit on you? Where did she spit on? >> It was like right here on my leg. >> She spit on your on your thigh. >> Yeah. Like she went to go spit at me and I stepped back and that's whatever it spit right there. I wouldn't have never expected her to spit on me. I never expected us to fight or do nothing like that. >> So then what happened? >> So as soon as she spit on me, I did put my hands on her. She smacked my phone out of my hand and then we started fighting. >> So, I'm going to read you something. Okay. Only because I want to ask you something. >> Yes, sir. >> But before I do, >> so please pay attention. Yes, sir. >> Okay. >> Says, "You have the right to remain silent.

If you cannot afford to hire a lawyer, one will be appointed to represent you before any questioning if you wish. You can decide at any time to exercise these rights and not answer any questions or make any statements. Do you understand each of these rights I have explained to you? >> Yes, sir. >> Have you asked any law enforcement officer to speak to an attorney? >> No, sir. >> Having these rights in mind, do you wish to talk to us now? >> Yeah. So, I want to figure out a solution for this, sir. So, so you're saying that >> middle name? >> Yes, sir. >> Your last name? >> Yes, sir. >> So, you say you stop right here and she spit on your thigh? >> Yes, sir. >> Where exactly? After she spit on your height at immediately after she spit on your thigh, that's when you hit her. >> Like as soon as it happened, I kind of just swung my hand up. >> Okay. Which hand? >> My right hand. Yes, sir. >> And was it open, closed? >> I'm not exactly sure. >> Okay. And then where did you hit her? Do you remember where you hit her? I I don't think I hit her in the face the first punch cuz I was kind of like confused a little bit. >> So, it was a punch and that means it was a close one. >> I'm going to guess it was um but I think I might hit her on the shoulder at first and then my phone was knocked out of my hand and then >> Where was your phone? >> It was in my left hand. >> Okay. And then so you went to hit her, you made contact >> the first time? Yes, I believe so. With her shoulder. >> Okay.

You know she's saying she spit on her. What? She spit on her thigh. >> That's what she was saying. Makes no [ __ ] sense. I don't know. In that video it sounds like she was like heated. She spit on. She sounds like the primary customer. >> She sounds like Yeah, cuz she >> So, I'm going to go watch the video again. >> She was trying to get in her car, she's just telling her to leave, leave, leave, and out of nowhere, like obviously like, you know, her phone's pointed this way down where you see like you see her her stage changed and her like, you know, so I'm randed to still speak to me. So, she is saying that they were in an argument over the phone. She decided to come to a place of work because she felt they weren't getting anywhere on the phone. So, she was waiting for her behind her vehicle and then they both walked to the side of the vehicle and then they were still talking and then she spit on her and then she hit her and then she hit her back and that's where they started fighting. >> Yeah. Okay. So, I had a lady I had a lady over there. She's that friend. She's telling me that she's telling me that that she came out and caught the ass end of it.

Can you explain to me exactly what happened? What's the point you're over here to the side of your vehicle and she is and you guys are talking and you're telling her get away from my vehicle. You know what happened exactly? >> I wasn't looking at her at all. I wasn't making eye contact. I was looking like this. And as soon as I looked at her and I was like just leave me alone. I put my stuff down because I was scared that she was gonna hit me and she swung like I >> And where did she hit you? >> Here. >> Okay. >> Is the first hit >> and then I couldn't. >> What? Do you know if she hit you with an open hand, closed fist? >> Closed. It felt closed cuz >> And then And then So she hit you there. What do you know what hand it was? >> Mm-m. >> Okay. But you just felt the hit and then what happened? >> She just continued to like she probably hit me over 20 times. I'm not exaggerating. >> Did you hit back? >> Probably like three or four after I was being slung. Like I'm not >> Okay. So, you're trying to defend yourself. So, you did get her back. Okay. >> I don't do this. Like, I'm mortified. >> Okay. All right. So, I mean, I'm asking because she does have markings on her. Okay. So, I just >> endings came from when we were over here by the car >> towards that end when the lady was like telling us to stop, I had her hair because she would not stop hitting me. So, I had my hair wrapped. So, maybe they're from me maybe accidentally scratching her when I wrapped her hair. >> But, um, >> that's No, that's okay. Hey, you were you were defending yourself. So, I think I I I I see clearly what happened. >> I just want to know where those markings came from, if they were pre-existing or they happened from here. So, here's your ID back. >> All right. So, we um So, they're trying to get a hold of this lady named Sally who may have witnessed like start to finish. >> I think I think with the video that I have, we're just going to talk over here, him and I real quick. Okay. I don't know if I do mailrop or I don't know if it matters how you guys receive it and upload it. I don't know. >> Try sending attachment cuz we receive attachments. So, >> yeah. And then I'll check it to make sure. If not, do you have an iPhone? Yeah. >> If not, I know there's a way to go from iPhone to iPhone. >> Yeah. I I'm just techn technically not not very good with tech, but we'll but we'll figure it out. I'll make sure I get it. Okay. So, I So, I saw the video from beginning to end. So, yes, you can see where her feet are dangling off of the back of the vehicle. So that story matches up. But she says, "We walked together." No, you didn't really walk together. She hopped off. She went directly to the side of her car and was like, "What's the shooter talking about? Blah blah blah. You going to get tell me that." And then she's like, "Nobody cares about she's going to leave me alone. Get away from my car." Blah blah. And the whole time her phone is like this. So you can see from here. Yeah. The other girl doesn't say like, "You spit on me, nothing. You don't see spit. You don't hear spit. All you see is the next thing you hear is, you know, the scuffle and everything." So it like you were saying earlier, she was blocking her, impeding her path from getting into her vehicle. She asked her to leave. She would not move. >> She was just trying to go home. >> She was trying to leave. >> And so the markings that she has are defensive, I believe. >> Yeah. >> Because she she got hit. She has up here on her right eye and her forehead and some marks over here as well. I took pictures of that. So I mean, if we can get the other person, that'd be great. But I think I have enough here for >> for PC to >> battery. Yeah, battery. [ __ ] it. That that battery little battery. It might be caused by the harm >> cuz it's going to be it's going to be the harm. I asked her, she said she's a little dizzy. I asked her if she wanted to see rescue. Um she said no. She thinks she'd be fine, but so I want to make sure I get this video. >> Check your phone. >> Huh? >> Say trigger your phone video. >> Nothing yet. Do you know how to do the airdrop thing? Do you have an iPhone now? >> Yeah. >> Oh, nice. Go to your uh settings. >> Can Can you do this? I'm going to go put her 1015 >> here. Hold on. >> Where are your settings? >> All right. Go go go. Okay. So, uh drop receiving uh everyone for 10 minutes. Perfect. So, the next 10 minutes. >> Can you have her do the air drop for me? And then the other the other person, the witness who saw everything is on their way or possibly were trying to make contact. >> Uh, can you air drop the >> Okay, ma'am. I need you to turn around for me, please, and put your hands behind your back. Let's roll up these sleeves here. Am I able to call my mother? >> Sure. What you get? >> She doesn't have it on the phone. >> How would you call her anyway? >> Messenger. [Applause] >> Are my charges going to be filed as well? Or how do I file my charges?

When you get to the jail, you're going to sit there. You're going to see the nurse. He's going to write a report. He's going to put the charges on there. You're going to be given an opportunity to contact whoever you need to do. Okay. Do you have any other questions? >> Yes, sir. Who do I talk to about the charges that I talk to about that?

Any drugs, any weapons, anything like that? Just to let you know, I'm taking you to the county jail. If there is anything found illegal on you, >> it's going to be a felony. Yes, sir. >> Right now, what you're being charged with is battery. Okay. Which is a misdemeanor. Yes, sir. >> So, again, it will be a felony. So, I'm arresting you because I saw the video and with the statements that you made and the statements that she made and all the evidence that I have, it looks like you were the primary aggressor impeding her from entering her vehicle instead of just letting her get in and drive away. Okay. And as far as the spit, I didn't see any spit. Hear any spit? >> We fought and my leg >> Well, she fought as defending herself. Okay. So, stand right here for me. I'm just going to give you a pat down just to make sure legally now, sir. Huh? >> So, as far as to your earlier question, as far as what are you going to do to you can talk to the state attorney about that if you want to file charges? >> Police misconduct if you don't accept my charges. Correct. >> No, not at all. >> Would you like me to roll down the window? >> Hey, >> no. Okay. Be >> careful of this. Just pocket it on me. >> Oh, gotcha. So, >> okay.
