I don't give a talking about >> Listen, if that's the case, then we have I have to talk to you so we can get to that point. >> You got nothing to talk about because he's the one called y'all. He called y'all when I'm the one looking crazy. But when he's the one putting his hands on me, I didn't call him. I didn't call y'all because I'm not trying to make him look crazy. I don't care. I don't care. SO, WHATEVER Y'ALL next step, y'all want to arrest me. Y'all want to do whatever the that do that. Do that. Cuz I don't have [ __ ] to say to you. Cuz I'm not in a wrong about [ __ ] >> I never said I'm not IN THE WRONG ABOUT [ __ ] I Ubered here. How the COMING TO ME? I UBERED HERE. How are y'all coming to me, bro? Do what the do.

Do you have a driver's license? >> Yes, I do. >> Can I? >> Yes, I do. Yes, I >> We We'll take it in baby steps and we're going to try to figure out what's going on. >> You have to fake cool with me, bro.

I didn't put my hands on him. >> Okay. Well, listen. Somebody called and said that there was an argument and that they it appeared like there was some sort of fighting. That's why we're here. >> Man, I'm 5'5 and he's 64. >> Listen, I'm just telling you why we're here, okay? And because of that, we have to try to investigate here. >> Can I get my phone?

ALL THE [ __ ] you did >> at this moment. The confrontation is no longer just about a woman refusing to leave a vehicle. The officers are responding to a report of a possible domestic disturbance, which means they cannot simply accept one person's version and walk away. They have to separate the people involved, control the scene, and determine whether anyone has been harmed. But there is also an important distinction here. Being difficult, argumentative, or emotionally overwhelmed does not automatically prove a crime occurred. Ayana's refusal may appear suspicious. But suspicion is not evidence. The real question is whether the officers are giving clear, lawful instructions connected to their investigation or whether the conflict is escalating, mainly because neither side is willing to back down. This is where cooperation matters, but so does restraint. The safest outcome depends on both sides, preventing a tense investigation from becoming a physical confrontation. >> Hey, look at me. >> Don't touch me. Don't touch me. I'm not doing [ __ ] to you. Says you're going to take me there. They take me there. That's not his car. That's not his car. He's weird. You bro, he's recording so he can post on his content. You recording so you can post on your content. You weird as hell. You recording so you can repost on your you. I hate you. I hate you. Why would you? >> You're not being honest. Why are y'all detaining me if I did NOTHING WRONG? >> WHY Y'ALL DETAINING ME IF I DID NOTHING WRONG? >> WHY Y'ALL detaining me if I did nothing wrong? >> Two days ago, I paid um $300 to the car now. So, you got >> It's 7:07. I paid $300. He got here. He got in the back of the car. >> And he's the one got the door doing all extra. I'm like, "This not your car. It's my best friend's car." >> Get out the car. He said, "Get out of the car." I paid the car note as well. What happened after that? >> He told me that I had to put him out the car. I threw his [ __ ] out. I'm a woman. I'm 5'5. I'm 171. I cannot physically remove him out the car. So, I put his [ __ ] out the car because I knew that throwing his [ __ ] out, he don't like when his [ __ ] on the ground. I've been with him for 10 years. So, you did you throw this stuff out hoping that that would get him to get out of the car? >> Yes. I'm not going to lie. I throw [ __ ] >> Ayana's explanation introduces a common problem in domestic incidents. Financial contribution is being treated as ownership and control. She says she paid money toward the vehicle, but the car apparently belongs to her friend. Even if she contributed financially, that does not automatically give her unlimited authority over the car or over another person's property inside it. Her decision to throw his belongings outside is also significant. She presents it as a way to make him leave, but it shows that the dispute had already moved beyond a calm disagreement. When emotions are high, people often describe their own actions as defensive while describing the other person's actions as aggressive. That does not mean Ayana is lying about everything. It means her account needs independent verification. Who owns the vehicle? Who had permission to use it? Were any threats made? And did either person become physical before police arrived? In domestic cases, context matters, but context does not erase conduct. >> I'm going to call the police. And I'm just like, this is my best friend. This not your family. This not your best friend. >> Okay. And I >> She can't afford her car. I'm paying on the car. YOU'RE PAYING ON THE CAR NOTE. HER PASS due payments. That's $12, $1,500. I ain't paying on that. If they look at the receipts, they're going to see that I'm paying it. Just cuz you paying the monthly payments on the 26th. I'm paying that already. Like what the >> that you are not paying on the car. I'm not even concerned with the car right now. Okay, >> then why did y'all put me out the car if I didn't threaten nobody life with a >> I know that. Let me Let me explain it to you again. Okay, somebody called because you guys got in an argument. They do it. They all do it all the time. No, somebody else called. Okay, regardless, because of that, we had to come here and and make sure that everybody's okay. That's why we're here. Okay. I'm not here because of who has rights to the vehicle or not, who's paying the car note, whatever. That's kind of besides the fact at this point. I need to make sure that you're not injured, that he is not injured, and that now that I verified that neither of you need to go to the hospital, I have to figure out why we were called here. Okay? I understand that you're frustrated. >> Somebody else called you so you know why you was called. >> Okay? But I need to hear it from you guys cuz I have to, you know, if if you guys were physically fighting, then we have to address that. >> I wasn't physically fighting. I pulled up because my best friend contracted the car. She can't afford to pay the cardinals, but I can because of my job. So, I pay the cardinal. She told me the address in the caros. I don't even know if he was here or not. >> My baby don't even have formula. We have a newborn. >> She's 7 months. You haven't been paying on her formula, but you paying on a car. My best friend is telling me the the car is at this location. I'm like, how is he paying on this car, but he don't even pay for a formula? >> Okay. She like the car is at this location best. Go get the car. I already told Miss Walka. She's in Miss Walka, Indiana. Like I said, she can't pay. She can't afford to buy a car note cuz she lost her job. So, I'm paying on the car. >> I know that you're paying on the car note. You express that to me. Uh what's your friend's name that >> you run the plates? Do you run the scene? >> Yeah, that that's why I want to make sure that it that it goes back to I think it does. Um so, so you got here in an Uber, correct? >> Yes. >> You did not drive here? >> No. Uh after you got out of the Uber and you got into the car, you guys just kind of had an argument. >> No, I got in the car. He calls again. I call it back. I said it's best car. You can't dictate where the going. He when I was in the house, we already had a prior disagreement. We had a prior disagreement on the way. >> I mean, regardless of this, I mean, if you want, but it's kind of besides this point. >> Um Okay. When you guys were in the car and you were arguing, did Yeah. Uh, did you just spit in the car? >> No. I got a lot of hair in my mouth and I'm I'm >> there's hair in my mouth. I'm not about to say, "Can you get this out of my mouth?" Like, y'all not about to do that. >> They were home alone and locked down the house. >> 104. We'll try to see if we can get somebody free here in a second. Yeah. >> Um, >> okay. So, you guys are arguing in the car. Did you Did you hit him at any point? >> No, we never hit each other. >> Okay. See, that's that's what I was trying to get out. >> When he got out the car, he called police once he got out the car. I threw his [ __ ] out the car. I was going to leave before y'all even got here because why would y'all pull me over? I just left before he was got out the car. I was throwing you out the car. He Yeah, she's doing this. She's doing this. She's doing this. Do you get why? Like if somebody was standing by and they heard people yelling and then all of a sudden they saw a bunch of stuff flying out of a car, they might call 911. Like >> like do you understand why somebody might call? >> No. Okay, I understand. >> You know what I'm saying? That's that's it. That's it. >> But I'm just saying that this isn't her car. This isn't his car. When he was in the house, I'm not going to lie. I was in his face. >> I'm not going to say I wasn't in his face. He called the police in the house. Okay. We literally didn't threw the liquid at him >> and I threw it like I would hit him, but I really did throw it. >> You threw the liquid at him? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Where? All right. Here's the deal. All right. Um, so you're telling me that you threw the coffee on him? He's stating that he threw the coffee on him. Okay. >> This admission changes the entire case. Until now, Ayana has repeatedly denied that a physical fight took place. But throwing coffee or liquid at an intimate partner can still qualify as unwanted physical contact even if no punch was thrown and no serious injury is visible. That is the detail many people misunderstand about domestic battery. The law does not always require dramatic violence. In many jurisdictions, intentionally making insulting, provoking, or unwanted physical contact with a family or household member may be enough. Still, one unanswered question remains. What happened immediately before she threw it? Was she reacting to a threat, attempting to defend herself, or acting out of anger? The video gives us an admission, but not necessarily the complete context. Police must act on the evidence available at the scene. Viewers, however, should be careful not to confuse an arrest decision with a final finding of guilt. An arrest begins the legal process. It does not end it. >> Domestic battery, and I have to place you under arrest for domestic battery. Okay. So, at this point, you are under arrest. Um, I'm going to contact her friend, see what we want to do with the car. She wants to leave it here. We'll park it. She can come get it. If she's okay with him taking it, that's what we'll do. But as of right now, that's where we're at. Okay.
