ORLANDO, Fla. -- Police have arrested a mother after WESH 2 News uncovered video of a fight between her daughter and another teen.
Video sent to WESH 2 News shows two teen girls walking to the middle of a field. The girls then swing at each other and pull one another's hair. They eventually fall to the ground and continue fighting.
Throughout the entire fight, they are egged on by several teenagers and an adult.
WESH 2 News showed the video to Orlando police, who said the adult woman in the video is Sandra Padilla Miranda.
Police believe she is the parent of one of the girls.
Padilla Miranda was arrested Thursday afternoon.
"(She) basically set up a fight for her daughter. The mother arranged the fight. Unfortunately the girls agreed to have this fight, but the mother was arrested," said Sgt. Vince Ogburn with the Orlando Police Department.
Ogburn said Padilla Miranda could be heard on the video in Spanish telling her daughter to "hit harder" and "bite her."
Ogburn sa id Padilla Miranda told investigators she had no way of stopping the fight.
"Someone was holding her back as the reason why she couldn't stop the fight, and clearly you can see in your video, that no one was attempting to hold her back at all," Ogburn said.
Padilla Miranda told investigators that she set up the fight to stop the girls from fighting at Boone High where they attend school.
While there was no answer at Padilla Miranda's house Thursday, a friend of the family, Cely Bruno, shared her thoughts about the fight.
"I got a kid myself, you feel me? And if I see my kid on the floor getting beat while there's mad kids out there, God knows what could happen to my daughter. I would have been like, 'Go ahead, do your thing,'" Bruon said.
