'She looked very agitated, as if she was going to do something. She was on the second rail hanging over, I was nearly going to go and grab her but she came down again… she was very agitated.

'I pretended to pat my dog to take the attention away from anything happening in the area.

'When she moved to the north I followed by 100m behind and when she walked past me I kept a safe distance.'

The woman was arrested and kept in custody over night in Wollongong. She is expected to appear in court on Thursday.
