I was talking with my mom on my phone but her on hold to tell the woman, Im sorry if Im trespassing, and then move away.Burse said the woman,who police in South Miami identified as 63-year-old Maria Dorrbecker,started pointing her finger and griping to her.So Burse decided to end the call with her mom and record the incident.When Burse asked Dorrbecker why she was following her, the woman replied, Because youre part of south Miami.Dorrbecker kept threatening to report Burse for an unknown reason. Burse told HuffPost she was new to the neighborhood, having moved in with her fianc, Christopher Riker, a delegate for Bernie Sanders.Burse posted the video on her blog and it went viral after one of her followers uploaded it on Twitter.function onPlayerReadyVidible(e){'undefined'!=typeof HPTrack&&HPTrack.Vid.Vidible_track(e)}!function(e,i){if(e.vdb_Player){if('object'==typeof commercial_video){var a='',o='m.fwsitesection='+commercial_video.site_and_category;if(a+=o,commercial_video['package']){var c='&m.fwkeyvalues=sponsorship%3D'+commercial_video['package'];a+=c}e.setAttribute('vdb_params',a)}i(e.vdb_Player)}else{var t=arguments.callee;setTimeout(function(){t(e,i)},0)}}(document.getElementById('vidible_1'),onPlayerReadyVidible); In a blog post, Burse wrote about the incident:She wasnt making any sense. Telling me Im from south Miami like I even knew what that meant, literally getting in my face, following me as Im trying to just walk away. This kumquat actually admitted that I wasnt on her property, yet continued to talk shit so Im like you know this is harassment, right' If you just admit that Im not on your property, then wtf are you bothering me for'The video shows the older woman attempting to grab Burse, who responds by hitting the woman in the forehead.I was taught to respect your elders, but I was trying to deescalate the situation before I turned on the camera, but she shut that down, Burse told HuffPost.During the encounter, Burse pulled her dog back to keep him in line, saying "Move Mojito." The phrase is now a trending hashtag on Twitter.At some point, Burse and Dorrbecker stopped arguing, and each went to their separate homes.Both of them called 911, Burse told HuffPost.I was having trouble providing the address because I had just moved there a week ago, and the officers arrived while I was still on the phone, she said.Two female officers showed up a short time later and spoke with Burse.They were like, Oh, you were just defending yourself, she said. One asked if I wanted to press charges. At first, I said no, because I wanted to be rid of it. They were like, Are you sure'Burse was hoping the incident would have taught the woman a lesson, but that didnt seem to be the case.According to a police report obtained by the Miami New Times, Dorrbecker admitted trying to grab Burses cell phone because she didnt like being recorded.When an officer told Dorrbecker that she had been identified as the primary aggressor based on the video, she said she had never been arrested before and was not going to jail.Dorrbecker was charged with simple battery, a misdemeanor in Florida. -- This feed and its contents are the property of The Huffington Post, and use is subject to our terms.
