In the interview, Megan says that the events that led up to the incident began with an “argument” because “I was ready to go, and everybody else wasn’t ready to go.”

“But that’s, like, normal friend stuff. … We fuss about silly stuff all the time,” she added.

“But I never put my hands on anybody. I never raised my voice too loud. … It shouldn’t have got this crazy.”

Megan said that she “didn’t want to move too quick” while Tory was allegedly shooting at her. “I’m like, ‘Oh my God, if I take the wrong step, I don’t know if he can shoot something that’s, like, super important.”
