me and my fiance were arguing in walmart when she shoved me lightley because she didnt want me following her because we were arguing. someone alerted a manager that we wee arguing an the manager started to follow us on camera. we walked for about 5-10 minutes bickering at eachother then she turned around to say something and accidentally hit me on my chin. as i was leaving the store the manager asked if she hit me an i said no then she said she wa told to follow us on camera by someone shopping an she said we will see about that its all on camera. i am worried for my fiance and if she can get in trouble for this? she has never done anything in the past and her record is clean

Unfortuantely in Arizona Assault ARS § 13-1203(A)(3)--touching with intent to harm harass or provoke could apply even if no injuries. What's more if you are in a romantic relationship, the matter could be considered "Domestic Violence."
Correct. This could be filed as assault (if there is injury then a class 1 misdemeanor, if no injury than a class 3 misdemeanor) and Domestic Violence. It's possible. However you should call an experienced criminal defense attorney. Take it from a former prosecutor, you need an attorney.
