He’d just met her last week. Now, a Los Angeles resident and Porsche owner says he’s too embarrassed over these events to show his face on news cameras.

Monday night, LAPD responded to reports of a woman vandalizing a Porsche SUV on Orchard Avenue, just off Franklin Avenue in Hollywood. The woman had reportedly damaged the windshield and left a box of alcohol on the front passenger seat.

The Porsche owner, now mortified at the turn of events, says she went into a fit of rage after he refused to buy her booze. She took out her feelings on his luxury car, he claims.

While officers investigated, the suspect was handcuffed and sitting in the back of an LAPD SUV

Police stood outside their department-issued vehicle, looking into the complaint and vandalized Porsche.

Then, something completely unexpected happened. Suddenly, their SUV drove off into Hollywood Hills.

She ditched the patrol car after about half a mile. By the time police located the vehicle, though, she was gone, Fox 11 shared. As of Tuesday morning, she was still on the run.

Officers say they found the department vehicle undamaged. The suspect didn’t steal anything from inside the cruiser, either.

The bigger question is how a cuffed suspect managed to access the front seat and drive away in a marked cruiser

Allegedly, the woman contorted to switch her arms from behind her back to her front. She probably opened the small partition window and crawled through to get into the driver’s seat.

This type of escape is rare, but not without precedent. In 2022, a handcuffed woman in Oklahoma slipped out of her restraints and fired a gun from the back of a patrol vehicle after stealing it. In 2023, a man in Georgia stole a police cruiser under similar conditions.

LAPD says the department was reviewing footage from the vehicle’s interior cameras to find out exactly what happened.
