'I don't give a f*** about your badge': Bizarre moment glamorous blonde plain clothes police officer arrests woman in Coogee as she screams 'you touched me first'
Shocking footage shows two women grappling in the street in Sydney's eastern suburbs, only for one to reveal she is a plain clothes police officer.
Both women were in Coogee on Saturday night with video showing the pair furiously arguing alongside two men.
They were separated by another reveller as they shouted and screamed in the street, clutching at each other's arms.
Suddenly the taller of the two women, a blonde wearing jeans and a loose-fitting jacket, produced a badge from her pocket.

Her gun and holster were clearly visible at her hip as she flashed the badge at onlookers, forcing many to back away from the altercation.
But the other woman, who was visibly distressed, continued to shout at the officer.
'I don't give a f**k about your badge,' she shouted as a man behind her held her back.
'If you didn't touch me first, I wouldn't have used that aggression,' she added.
In a later video taken at the same spot, three uniformed officers arrived and arrested the second woman, while the plain clothes cop stepped back.
Even as she was handcuffed and the plain clothes police officer instructed to step aside, she continued to deny any wrongdoing.
'I didn't touch her,' she shouted several times.
The footage was posted to Instagram page Humans of Bankstown, where it quickly racked up more than 13,000 views.
