Shocking security footage captured the moment a woman ran over a Porsche owner and fled in the vehicle after claiming she wanted to buy it.
The episode unfolded September 6 in Toronto, Canada, when a suspect, described as a 5’6 South Asian woman, turned up at the victim’s home after seeing his SUV advertised on AutoTrader.
As she arrived at the home she can be heard in Ring camera footage telling the owner: ‘Hello, I’m here for the Porsche.’
The video cuts to the driveway as she and the owner checked out the 2022 Porsche Cayenne, when she decided to make a break for it seconds after the owner left the passenger side.
Police are searching for this woman after she arrived at a home in Toronto, Canada this month to respond to an ad for a Porsche Cayenne SUV before fleeing with the vehicle
The suspect aggressively reversed while the owner was at the rear of the Porsche, sending him sprawling across the street as she made a break for it
Moments before the shocking incident, the woman had reportedly told the owner that she was waiting for her father, and cops say they are looking into another vehicle that was outside the victim’s home as a possible accomplice.
The victim, who has not been named, appeared to suspect that the woman was taking off with his car as soon as he exited the vehicle, as he tried to open the driver’s side door before moving to the back.
As he got to the back of the vehicle, the woman reversed aggressively out onto the street, dragging the victim along with her.
He appeared to be caught by one of the rear wheels and was left sprawling in the street.
Cops say they are also seeking another grey SUV they believe was an accomplice to the theft
Police said the woman fled the scene in the stolen vehicle, and is being sought by police along with a grey SUV that cops described as an accomplice vehicle.
The victim told CTV News Toronto that he sustained injuries to his elbow, hands and legs, and required medical attention after the incident.
Anyone with information about the theft is urged to contact the Peel Regional Police.
