Steals cop car and drives it 10 miles with hands cuffed behind her back, attaining a speed of 120 mph
This is one for the books. Roxanne Rimer, 27, got caught shoplifting Wednesday at a Kohl’s store in Center Township, Pennsylvania. She shoved a store security guard and escaped to the parking lot where her grandfather and mother were parked. She got into a fight with her mother and grandfather because he refused to drive away. She managed to get into the front seat and hit the gas pedal. That caused the car to travel a short distance over a hill. The cops arrived and busted Roxanne, placing her into the back of a Center Township cop car.
Now this is where the story gets really good. While the cops were outside the car interviewing witnesses, Roxanne, her hands cuffed behind her back, somehow managed to break through the plexiglass shield and get into the front of the cop car. (It is believed the shield was not latched.) Then she was able to put the car in gear … and off she went. She hit another Center Township cop car and also her grandfather’ car. Then she went on her merry way through several Pittsburgh suburbs, steering the car with her body and at times going over 120 mph with the cops in hot pursuit.
Roxanne managed to ditch the pursuing police. At one point she stopped, got out of the cops car and asked a pedestrian to drive the stolen patrol car for her. When he refused, she got back in and took off again until she wrecked the car more than ten miles from where she stole it. She then managed to hitch a ride with some guy, her hands still cuffed behind her back. Roxanne was either pushed or jumped out of the car in West Aliquippa. She then started to run with her hands still cuffed behind her back, but was caught by cops who spotted her. When the arresting cops searched Roxanne, they found some hypodermic needles in her possession.
Roxanne is facing numerous charges. After her arrest in West Aliquippa, she told reporters that she did not remember anything after being placed in the back of the patrol car.
For driving a car at 120 mph while steering it with her body, Roxanne is awarded the title of ‘Best Woman Driver of the Decade.’ When she gets out of jail, NASCAR might want to sign her up.

I wonder what she told the guy that she tried to get the ride from? "No, Those cops aren't looking for me. The cuffs? Cute huh!"
