Sometimes it's best to either stand up for yourself or just leave. In a case like this, you were in no wrong, you wern't even moving. It sounds like since there was a crowd that you probably didn't explain your side well enough out of embaressment or fear of the situation which caused it to end like that. It would have been best to apologise several times, and then say you have an important appointment and walk away, there is no reasoning with some people that cannot understand you either due to selfishness or a language barrier. Most people in a situation like that are understanding as well, I would have been, it's just a bump caused by her rushing too fast. If she wanted to follow you and yell that's fine, just keep walking, if she were crazy enough to get the police involved, well, let's just say we can filter through the B.S. easily, if your side checked out with your injury, then you would have been fine, even if there were relatives of the woman with her that would take her side, in a simple dispute such as this with no assault, under strictly legal terms all we could do is say, avoid eachother from now on and go your seperate ways. Learning to stand up for yourself within reason will help lead to a happier life, as your self esteem will go up and people will notice more confidence and won't walk all over you. Glad the eye is ok. As a police officer we see this kind of stuff every day, simple arguments and accidents.
