Police in the US have arrested one of two women who could not keep their hands or dance moves to themselves while at a petrol station in Washington D.C.
Ayanna Marie Knight, 22, of Las Vegas, was arrested late Tuesday night and charged with third-degree sexual abuse, according to NBC Washington.
Police are still looking for the second woman.
CCTV released on Monday showed the two women, who look dressed up for a night out, harassing a man who was talking on his mobile phone in the station store around 4pm on October 7.

Police have not said whether Knight was the woman wearing the red or the silver dress.
According to a police report, the women "used force and grabbed (the victim's) groin and buttocks multiple times in a very aggressive manner without his permission and without his consent."
The victim, who asked not to be identified, told News4 that he felt humiliated by the attack.
"As they were grabbing me, it wasn't like they were grabbing pants or anything like that," he said.
"I was assaulted sexually," he said. "I felt 100 percent violated. I felt really humiliated also, because when someone is just grabbing your body parts without your permission, no matter who it is, that's just a violation completely."
