A Canadian woman was arrested after she was caught on video slapping a male driving instructor and hurling slurs at him in a fight over parking.
The woman, who has not been identified, was arrested for allegedly assaulting the man around 9am on Wednesday in a parking lot in Langley, British Columbia, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) said.
According to the interaction, the woman appeared to be upset with him for parking his car 'illegally' across multiple spots in the seemingly deserted lot.
The now-viral clip showed the irate woman, dressed in a brown and black dress, boots and a jean jacket, smacking the man across the face, causing his sunglasses to fly off.
She then walked back toward her black SUV, which she parked directly in front of his car.
'Don't you ever,' the woman said to the man before he asked someone else there to get her license plate number.
She then pointed a finger at him and yelled: 'Yeah, go ahead! Go back to your country - tell them I said that too!'
'Born here, b****! Born here, b****!' he responded.
A woman smacked and yelled at a male driving instructor at a parking lot in Langley, British Columbia, Canada, on Wednesday morning
It is unclear exactly what the dispute was about, but according to their interaction, the woman appeared to be upset with him for parking his car 'illegally' across multiple spots in the seemingly empty lot
'No you weren't, no you weren't... You're teaching these people? You're teaching these people?' she asked as she approached the man again.
'Get the f*** out of my face. F***ing c***. You f***ing touch me,' the man told her.
He then asked someone inside his car where his phone was so he could call the police.
'Go, go ahead. I'm going to tell them... How are you not parked illegally?'
The man responded: 'Shut the f*** up!'
'You're parked illegally,' she repeated.
'You had to park in front of me, right?' he replied as he looked down at his phone.
She then continued to rant, telling him: 'You know what's really funny? Is every time a woman approaches a brown man and tells them what the actual rules are -'
She repeatedly told the man to 'Go back to your country' as they two of them went back and forth
The man eventually called 911 and reported the incident while the woman continued to rant
The instructor laughed loudly and put the phone to his ear as the woman watched on with her hands on her hips.
Following the incident, the Langley RCMP condemned the alleged violent assault.
'The interaction is disturbing and in no way a reflection of the community as a whole,' Corporal Mansoor Sahak of the Langley RCMP said.
'Langley RCMP are taking the report seriously and investigating the incident.'
The agency has also urged the public to reach out to police if they witnessed the moment.
The instructor works for Valley Driving School, the company confirmed on Facebook.
'We are aware of an incident involving one of our Instructors and are taking the matter seriously. The incident has been reported to police, and the safety and well-being of our team members remains a priority,' the business wrote.
The unidentified woman was arrested for allegedly assaulting him, police said. It is unclear if she was charged and how long she was held in custody
'The video has been shared by a third party unaffiliated with Valley Driving School. Out of respect for the privacy of those involved and the ongoing police investigation, we will not be commenting further on the details of the incident at this time.'
It is unclear if the woman was charged and how long she was held in police custody.
The Daily Mail contacted Langley RCMP and Valley Driving School for comment.
