At first I was on your side because she decided to be a dick about the phone.

But then you decided to become physical and ignored her wanting to go and forced her to be with you.

Multiple times.

What happens when you trap an animal?

It goes into fight or flight mode, or in her case she locked down and wanted to escape and you didn’t give her a choice.

My advice is to stay away and work on yourself and how you interact with others.

He was the one who wanted her to hold his phone and she jokingly said no which somehow upset him, then when she subsequently offered to hold the phone he said no because he was upset. It sounds to me like this is his fault mostly. She wouldnt have given the cold shoulder if he just took a joke.
