Video from the original incident showed the woman shouting, hitting the vendor, pouring out barrels of horchata and spitting on the food she had not already trashed.
Footage from the scene at"South Tacos Stand," located near Normandie and Slauson Avenues in the Harvard Park neighborhood, shows the woman, now identified as 30-year-old India Duerson, shouting at and hitting the vendor, pouring out barrels of juice and horchata, throwing food and spitting on everything she did not already trash.
The vendor, Bertha Zuniga, said it happened after the woman claimed it had taken her and other workers too long to make a burrito she had ordered as they set up for the day.Duerson was arrested by Los Angeles Police Department officers on Tuesday at around 4 p.m. on suspicion of robbery. She was booked and held on $60,000 bail.
As the investigation continues, officers are asking for anyone with any additional information to contact the LAPD tip line at 1-877-527-3247. This is far from the first act of violence directed towards street vendors in recent weeks, exemplified by video out of San Pedro in June,
