Everything. >> Cool. I just I have to work in the morning. >> This is not what I expected to happen tonight at all. >> Nope.

Little out of breath for a second. >> But >> we have to do the traffic crash investigation before we do anything else. >> Okay. >> All right. >> My keys. >> I just need to hang out. >> One of them has it.

You guys, >> can you please raise your right hand? >> As a law enforcement officer in the state of Florida, I'm authorized to take smart statements. Can you swear and affirm the statement you're about to give the truth? All truth. Nothing but the truth. >> Yes. >> Okay. You put your hand down. So, uh, what happened? >> Uh, I noticed they were having troubles at at this gate here on the left. And, um, I told them to move over to the other gate and I walked away. >> Okay.

So, you have to >> So, it's key card only. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Um, >> and they did not have a key card, so you told them to go to the other one cuz they'll be able to get out. >> Yeah, they had the little paper ones, so they had you pay on the other one. Um, I walked away and then I could I heard them arguing. Uh, so I turned around like, >> "Is that the other female she was arguing with?" >> Yes. >> In the white shirt over there. Okay. >> Yes. Um, I heard them arguing. Um, so I walk back over here to ask if everything's okay. Uh, the the girl in the white shirt over there storms away. Um, the other girl, I asked her to back up and that's when I realized she hit the the gate because the gate bounced. >> So, she was actually touching the gate when you asked her to back up. >> Yeah, she was up against it. So, I didn't notice that until she actually backed up. >> Okay. Um but she backed up. Um I thought she was going to back up and go to the other lane. >> Um but she backed up and hit that sign and then she went up uh the left side here and just kind of circled back and into a parking spot and >> Okay. So she went up the wrong side after she hit this. So when she backed up, did she pull into >> She kind of pulled like halfhazardly. >> Halfhazardly. Okay. Then went up the left side. Would you happen to know where what level her vehicle's on? Yeah, actually I saw her up there on the uh right hand side. Maybe three carsish down. >> What kind of vehicle? >> It's a white truck. >> A white truck. Do you know what kind of truck? >> Don't know what kind of truck. >> Okay. So, she was driving a white vehicle and that female in the black top and the like goldish silverish dress. >> Yeah. She never got out of the car, >> but you saw her when you came over and said told her that back up and go to the different gate. You >> Yes. I told her >> confirmed. You told her specifically and she was the one specifically driving that vehicle. >> Yes. >> Okay. And then once they went up and parked, what happened from there? >> Uh, by then I was on the phone with you guys, um, given my information. I noticed her shuffling around up there and she suddenly came running down here asking which way like my friend Linds. I said I didn't know and I I didn't I realized that she was right out there. Um, but then shortly thereafter, you guys showed up and they were just over there >> having a bit of chat. >> Okay. And then the officer separated them. >> Yeah. >> Okay.

After the lady came over and tried to help us and told us, "Hey, you're in the wrong lane." I said, "Let me drive. I'll drive. I'll take care of it." And she was but that's where the argument began because she wanted to drive and I wanted to drive and in my heart I knew neither one of us could drive >> and um she got very aggressive and I just walked away. I just w I walked down the street >> and then she came and then she came out saying the cops are coming. I was like well if they have to come they have to come. I don't know what to tell you. And then she's like we have to leave. And I'm like no we're not leaving. My purse is in the garage. my phone.
