Scott said: 'She said I had no right to play here in this public park.
'She said, 'I'm going to call my husband hes a federal judge and hes going to make you stop'.
'She was very aggressive, yelling and screaming.
'She literally stuck it right in my face blinding my eyes. She basically swiped at my wife's face.
'As she was walking she was videoing behind her and this big guy and the woman were chasing after her.
'You cant have people so disrespectful and attacking for no reason at all.'

She follows him as he tries to move before spinning around and realising she is being recorded.
The woman was joined by her husband US bankruptcy judge Marvin Isgur, with the pair following Scott and his wife as they retreated.
She was left with a black eye — which can be seen in her mug shot — after tripping while trying to grab a backpack belonging to the couple as they trailed the couple on Monday evening.
Isgur has been charged with assault and had to pay a £74 ($100) bail bond or face being locked up until the case calls in court.
Project manager Scott says learning the pipes is a family tradition and he has played in the park regularly with no problem until he was confronted by the same person just weeks earlier.
He added: 'My grandfather gave them to me and I taught my son how to play.
'Texans just love the sound of the pipes.'
Terry Allbritton, of Harris County police, confirmed officers lifted Isgur after the showdown.
He said: 'A 76-year-old woman became upset over an individual playing bagpipes in a secluded, wooded area of the park.
'She confronted the musician while recording and yelling at him.
'The piper's wife, who witnessed the confrontation, also began recording on her cellphone.
'The situation escalated when the suspect began screaming loudly and proceeded to physically assault the woman for recording the encounter.
'The 76-year-old woman was arrested for Assault-Bodily Injury.'

Scots cops charge man 30 years after mystery death of young mum
Shona Stevens was found dying just meters from her home Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A PENSIONER who was arrested in connection with the mystery death of a young mum 30 years ago has now been charged. Shona Stevens was tragically found dying just meters from her home in Irvine, Ayrshire, on November 10, 1994. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Shona Stevens died in November 1994 Credit: POLICE SCOTLAND 3 She was found critically injured on a footpath near Alder Green, in Irvine, Ayrshire Credit: POLICE SCOTLAND The 31-year-old was discovered on a footpath near the rear of Alder Green in the Bourtreehill Park area of the town. She was rushed to hospital, but sadly passed away three days later. Shona was living with her mum and her daughter, Candice, who was just seven at the time. She had briefly left the house to nip to the Co-op shop in Bourtreehill Shopping Centre around lunchtime when she was allegedly attacked. She was last seen walking home alone along Towerlands Road at around 1.10pm. But three decades after detectives were left baffled, police yesterday revealed that a 67-year-old man was arrested in connection with her death. And today, Police Scotland's Major Investigation Team have confirmed that the pensioner has now been charged. He is now expected to appear at Kilmarnock Sheriff Court sometime on Monday. Senior investigation officer Detective Chief Inspector Stuart Gillies said: 'I would like to thank the members of the local community who assisted us in our inquiries. 'I am grateful for their information and input, which greatly contributed to our investigation.' I thought mom abandoned me as a baby but she'd been left 'without a face' in brutal murder - cops 'can solve it & won't' The major breakthrough in the cold-case murder comes after mum Mhairi and Candice launched a plea for answers last year. The heartbroken family urged anyone with information to come forward and speak with officers. "We still want justice for Shona, and your help would be greatly appreciated. "We know it has been 30 years since Shona was taken from us but to us it seems like only yesterday. "There is not a day that goes by that she is not in our thoughts and in our hearts. 'If you remember noticing or seeing anything suspicious or out of the ordinary, no matter how small, please let the police know. ' Investigators previously said the key to solving the case was in the community and Crimestoppers stumped up a £20K reward. In a previous appeal, DI Gillies said he believed "the person responsible has local connections". He said a number of "forensic investigations" were also being carried out, during a statement in November last year. He said the force "remains focused to ensure that justice is done". Appeals for information have also featured on the BBC's Crimewatch.

Putin refuses to meet Zelensky to end war as tyrant's forces kill six in fresh blitz on residential area in Ukraine
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) VLADIMIR Putin has again refused to meet with Volodymyr Zelensky as he ordered his troops to unleash another deadly blitz on civilians. At least six Ukrainians were killed in the horror Russian strikes which targeted a high rise building and left a shopping mall up in flames. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 Vladimir Putin has unleashed another deadly blitz on civilians with a fire raging in the Dnipropetrovsk region overnight Credit: East2West 5 Ukraine's second city Kharkiv was struck with aerial bombs, drones and missiles in three hours of hell Credit: East2West 5 The sickening strikes hit dozens of regions with at least six people killed Credit: East2West The sickening strikes hit a Novodvoryansky residential complex in Dnipro city, killing one man and injuring a woman in a huge explosion. Ukraine's second city Kharkiv was struck with aerial bombs, drones and missiles in three hours of hell. Kamianske was also invaded by a swarm of 35 drones with the Epicentre shopping centre being impacted and sending civilians fleeing. The terrifying night of strikes came just after Zelensky issued a challenge to Putin urging him to finally discuss a peace deal in person. It would be the first meeting of the pair since Russia's illegal invasion in 2022. US President Donald Trump even told reporters on Friday that the pair would definitely meet soon. He said: "It's going to happen, but it should have happened 3 months ago." But the Kremlin was quick to dismiss both Western leaders as Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov officially said a meeting won't take place unless a peace deal is ready to be finalised. This isn't likely to happen until the end of August at the earliest, he added. Peskov said: 'A summit meeting [involving Putin] can and should put an end to the settlement and formalise the modalities and agreements that are to be worked out in the course of expert work. Why Putin's $1 TRILLION military surge is just 'smoke and mirrors' - and even the tyrant knows it "It is impossible to do the opposite. Is it possible to complete such a complex process in 30 days? Obviously, it is unlikely." Any hopes for a breakthrough continue to appear bleak as warned the enemies remain "diametrically opposed" last week. Zelensky has previously proposed a four-way summit which also involves the US and Turkey. The US has also said an unconditional, 30-day ceasefire could be put in place to help pave the way for a long-standing deal. Moscow has rejected both proposals. Many experts believe that a scheming Putin is holding out as long as he can so his forces can seize more land in Ukraine. Vlad can then go to the negotiating table in a stronger position. Despite his refusal to stop the bloodshed, pressure is still mounting on the tyrant to end the war in Ukraine. President Trump issued a blistering 50-day ultimatum to Russia earlier this month saying he must agree to a ceasefire of face crippling sanctions. He vented his frustration with Putin, declaring he was "disappointed" but "not done" with the Russian tyrant. There are now growing fears that Putin is preparing for an even deadlier chapter in his war. According to German Major General Christian Freuding, Moscow is plotting a mass drone assault involving 2,000 Shahed drones, in a bid to overwhelm Ukraine's already strained air defences. The general warned: 'We have uncovered worrying intelligence… [Russia is] significantly expanding its weapons production capacity.' Chilling footage aired on Russian state TV showed teenagers working in a so-called 'drone death factory,' with Moscow boasting about the 'huge, bright workshops' churning out kamikaze drones by the hundreds. 5 Putin has again refused to meet with Volodymyr Zelensky Credit: AP
