    A video, which captured the moment a cop confronted the woman at the skate park area, recently went viral on social media.

    The footage began with the woman sitting on a bench before the cop unexpectedly shoved her onto the paved ground.

    After the woman’s sunglasses fell off, the cop managed to get her in a chest-down position and forcefully brought her hands behind her back.

    The woman continued her expletives-filled rant with the cop on top of her

    “Get the f*** off me,” the woman was heard screaming.

    She continued yelling statements with expletives while the cop was on top of her.

    Witnesses, including at least one child, were seen hovering around as the confrontation escalated.

    Cops later revealed that the woman was refusing to comply with the responding officers’ orders and resisted arrest.

    They said the woman also allegedly bit the officer as he tried to place her in handcuffs, leaving him with pain, swelling, and an abrasion.

    “He should not have slammed her… escalated it to violence way too quickly, she was not posing any sort of threat to the officer to warrant the WWE drama… somebody call Vince Vaughn and transfer this guy off the force into showbiz,” one said.

    “That is excessively ab*sive,” read a second comment, while a third said, “I’m sorry, that’s so unnecessary. Old people can easily get a hip broken that way and cut their lifespan down by 30%. Stupid af on the cops part.”

    A fourth wrote, “This woman is not old, and she shouldn’t have been acting inappropriately in front of children. She got exactly what she deserved.”

    “What a foul-mouthed piece of work is she! Not an ounce of dignity,” one said online

    “Clearly, she has issues. Was it necessary for the officer to manhandle her?” one asked. He could have simply arrested her…”

    “I hate cops, but well, I enjoyed watching this Karen get an education,” another said.

    “What a foul-mouthed piece of work is she! Not an ounce of dignity,” wrote one.

    “[She] should have complied,” another said. “She got what she asked for.  I hope she learns to mind her own business…”

    “America is plagued with adult toddlers,” one commented online
