Jupiter Police Department have released an official video that shows Lewandowski grabbing Fields from behind, and pulling her away from Trump. 

Fields was a reporter for the website Breitbart which has generally reported favorably on Trump. Following the incident, she resigned from her position, saying that the website has not stood by her. 

“I do not believe Breitbart News has adequately stood by me during the events of the past week and because of that I believe it is now best for us to part ways,” Fields said in a statement obtained by BuzzFeed.
