A California mom was arrested after she was caught on video encouraging her 13-year-old daughter to hit another child last week, police said.

Barbara Cypress was collared at her Turlock home on Tuesday night and booked on a slew of charges that included false imprisonment and child abuse, Fox 40 reported. Her daughter was charged with battery, SF Gate reported.

Police made the arrest after a student’s cellphone video of Cypress telling her daughter to hit another 13-year-old girl surfaced on Facebook. The fight occurred after the students finished their classes at Turlock Junior High School, officials said.

The victim claims that Cypress’ daughter had been bullying her, so she confronted her on the school bus in an effort to get her to stop, cops said. The fight began after both teens arrived at a local park.

The victim told SF Gate that’s when Cypress “came out of nowhere” and told her daughter to hit her.

“Hit her. It’s after school, it’s after school,” Cypress is heard yelling in the video. “You can’t get in trouble.”

The victim’s mother, Irina Lizarraga Acuna, says she doesn’t blame the child for hitting her daughter – but blames Cypress for egging her on.

“In the video, you can see that the teenager doesn’t even want to hit my daughter. She’s being forced by her mom to hit her,” she told Fox 40.

“You know, I’m not even mad, I can’t be mad at the teenager. I’m mad at the mom. How could you force your daughter to hit someone else?”

Acuna said she wishes her daughter hadn’t confronted the girl on the school bus.

“My daughter told her, ‘Stop talking about me. Leave me alone. Stop, you know, calling me names,'” Acuna told the station. “And told the girl she wasn’t afraid of her, to leave her alone, and this is when everything else started.”

Even though the fight happened off campus, the students involved in the incident can still face disciplinary action, the school said in a statement.

“Like most who have viewed this video, we were appalled by this attack. We have identified those shown in the video and have shared this information with the Turlock Police Department who are conducting an investigation,” read the statement.
