One of the women caught making unwanted advances on a man inside a gas station in that infamous twerk-assault surveillance footage has pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of sexual abuse, reports the New York Daily News. Ayanna Marie Knight, a 22-year-old woman from Las Vegas, reportedly entered the plea earlier this week in Superior Court. The incident, which took place inside a gas station convenience shop in D.C. in October, also involved another woman who reportedly remains at large.

"You don’t know who these people are," the alleged victim told Fox 5 shortly after the footage was released by local authorities. "I was afraid [for] my safety." The women also reportedly flashed the victim, who later reported the encounter to police after the gas station attendant told him "What do you want me to do?"

Knight's sentencing is currently set for Monday. As for the othertwerk-assault participant, she is believed to be facing the same charges as Knight, though no additional arrests have been made regarding the incident.
