A 32-year-old woman and her 14-year-old daughter were seen fighting with officers on Sunday at Battery Park.

Officials said the duo intervened during an NYPD and Parks Department operation.

Sources told NY1 the two agencies were confiscating perishable items from unlicensed vendors at the park.

The items being sold were not safe to eat and were being destroyed, sources added. The mother and daughter stepped in to save the food, which is when confrontation followed.

In the video, seen on social media outlets, the teenager was seen in handcuffs.

“She’s young, you know. I feel like they were only supposed to grab the merchandise,” Gabrhaile Brown, who shot the video of the incident, said.

According to sources, the arresting Parks Department officer is on administrative duties while an investigation unfolds.

“People are calling us and saying it gives the appearance our city is having a level of disorder and anything, everything goes,” Mayor Eric Adams said.

Adams said illegal vendors in the area have led to a surge in 3-1-1 quality-of-life complaints.

“We must respond to complaints that are coming from citizens. The parent there is a habitual abuser of it, and she has been told several times, and she refuses to comply,” he said.

According to city data, the number of 311 calls related to vending in the area has skyrocketed. In January, there were roughly a couple hundred complaints. Since then, complaints have roughly quadrupled.

There have already been a few dozen complaints recorded in the first three days of June, according to data.

“This is the reality of a lot of street vendors,” Mohamed Attia, the managing director of the Street Vendor Project, an advocacy group, said.

Attia blamed the issue on bureaucracy.

“It is impossible to get the proper food vending permit that the food vendors need to operate their business in a lawful way under the status quo. There is a very long waiting list that has thousands of names on it,” Attia said.

Sources told NY1 the mother received a desk appearance ticket, and the teenager received a juvenile report.

“When individuals have repeatedly flouted the law, we take additional enforcement actions, and there are instances when it is necessary to place violators and individuals obstructing the law under arrest,” a spokesperson for the Parks Department said in part in a statement.

As for the mother, she was out again on Monday vending in the area, saying she needs the money.
