man he had no fight to hit.her
mirror and told him it was un-
called for behavior. The woman
said the boys then started calling
her fat and other names while
cursing at her. Robins then asked
the woman if she had threatened
the man by saying she'd "f----
-- kill his a--:' The woman said

felt like she and her young child
were in danger. The woman then

man for disorderly conduct, he
would also have to arrest her for
making a terroristic threat. The
woman then told Robins she
needed a lawyer. Robins then
met with the man who said he
was driving the moped behind a
group of boys who were jogging.

approached the group, it nearly
hit two of the boys. He said he
then slapped her vehicle's mirror
in order to get her to move over
because there were several more
boys behind him. The man said
the woman then got out and
started cursing at them. He said
some of the boys yelled back at
her but he wasn't sure what was
said or who said it. However, he
said he remembered the woman
profanely yelling that she would
kill him. The man said he didn't
want to press charges against the
woman. Meanwhile, the officer's
sister said she was driving behlnd
the woman when she got out and
started cursing at the boys. She
said the woman then pointed at
the man while saying she would
kill him. Robins told both the
woman and the man to contact
