And you guys weigh well over 200lbs.&#8217; <br>She then lunges again at the women, screaming: &#8216;Stop filming me or I will break your f****** camera.&#8217; The terrified woman on the phone to police says: &#8216;Oh my God, she&#8217;s reaching into her bag. Please come here quickly!&#8217; </p>
