In the video, the camera operator draws level with the grey saloon car and both the bonnet-riding woman and the driver, also female, make vocalisations.

"Call the police, she's trying to kill me," shouts the women on the car's exterior, while the one behind the wheel says: "She assaulted me – tried to break my window."

According to 13newsnow.com, the incident began shortly before 6pm local time near 77th Street. The two women were known to each other.
