A Florida woman was caught on camera kicking a police officer in a local Department of Motor Vehicles office after she had a blazing row with another DMV employee.

Eleanore Stern, 31, from Boca Raton, kicked a Florida Highway Patrol trooper at the Deerfield Beach DMV after he was called to remove her from the building.

Stern can be seen aggressively turning to face the trooper as she fights with him and holds onto him. He keeps calm but attempts to get her under control and throws her to the ground.

In a bid to stop her attack, he covers her with his entire body but she does not stop assaulting the officer. Instead she can be seen spinning around on the floor as he battles to get her to stop.

She manages to wriggle away once more and the trooper follows her trying to stop her. He eventually manages to haul her out of the DMV office as shocked eyewitnesses look on. 

Video of the incident was posted to Facebook by an eyewitnesses who saw Stern assault the trooper.

At first Stern can be heard telling an employee: 'I'm not moving!' as she mocks the worker's tone of voice.

The trooper arrives and attempts to calm the situation down saying: 'Ma'am, listen to me. And she replies: 'No! Listen to me.'

As he moves her she launches a physical attack. Stunned eyewitnesses can be heard saying: 'Oh my God,' in the background. 

As she attacks the trooper Stern says proudly: 'You have a badge and you can't even fight! You can't even fight. You can't do sh**. These are the people that are here to protect us! You can't do sh**.' 

She screams: 'Get off me! Get off me!' The trooper asks: 'What is wrong with you?' as he tries to get her out of the door.'

She wrestles her way back inside and says: 'These are the people that can protect you. These are the people! Even though I kicked his ass, I'm out of here. Goodbye. I'm not going to jail!'
