The woman told him to leave the property, and mentioned that it belonged to another family. She also began pointing at other homes and saying the names of the families that supposedly lived in them.

He told her to leave, and she made an "advancing motion toward him," causing him to be pushed backward in the pool, the police report states. He told police that he would not strike an older unarmed woman, and the woman eventually left on her own. She got in a vehicle and drove away.
Police searched the area but were unable to find the woman.
