Linda Scott said she was simply using the cleaning agent to deter pests around her home when the altercation occurred on Monday morning.

Scott, who lives on President Street in Crown Heights, spreads ammonia near her fence due to persistent issues with dog owners failing to cleanup after their pets in the abandoned lot adjacent to her property.

When a group of dog walkers confronted her, Scott claims they accused her of splashing the ammonia on them and their animals, leading to a heated exchange.
