One of two women caught on film twerking and groping a man without his consent at a Washington, D.C., gas station has been arrested and charged with third-degree sexual abuse, police said Tuesday.
The incident happened at a Shell gas station on Oct. 7 after a man went inside the convenience store around 4 p.m.
In security footage released by the Metropolitan Police Department on Nov. 9, a woman is first seen twerking on the man without his consent. Another woman then approaches and touches his crotch as he attempts to push her hands away.

The victim, who has asked not to be identified, told a local Fox-affiliate that he told the women to stop and even asked the clerk for assistance, who the man said responded, "What do you want me to do?"
He told Fox 5 that he went outside the store to call 911, but the women followed him to continue the alleged assault. The man said police also have footage of the assault in the carwash that has not been released.
He said there was a group of men, who he thought might be pimps, outside and feared fighting back because he didn't know what the men would do. The victim also said that he wasn't sure if his attackers were women, men, or transgender.
Police released footage of the gas station incident in hopes of catching the women, offering a $1,000-award for information. Metropolitan Police spokesman Sean Hickman told BuzzFeed News that the department has since removed the video because one of the women was arrested Tuesday.
