ORMOND BEACH, Fla. - A Jacksonville woman is behind bars after a failed attempt to carjack an elderly couple in Ormond Beach Saturday morning, police said.
Around 10:50 a.m., Ormond Beach Police said they arrived at the Exxon gas station at 1622 N US Hwy 1 in response to a report of a stolen car.
They found a man holding onto the leg of 36-year-old Marvette Perry to prevent her from escaping, police said. That man told police he parked his car at the Exxon to use the bathroom and before he could exit his car, Perry was opening his door.
Perry allegedly pushed the man out of the way and got into the driver's side of the car while the man's wife was in the front passenger seat, an arrest affidavit shows. He then grabbed Perry's leg and held her until the police arrived.
Another bystander on the scene told police he withdrew his gun because he noticed Perry acting "weird. He held her at gunpoint for some time before putting the firearm away when it appeared Perry was unarmed.
According to police, Perry initially resisted arrest but was taken into custody with several charges, including carjacking, burglary with assault, and resisting an officer.
In an interview with police, Perry said she was diagnosed with schizophrenia and jumped in the couple's car because she was feeling stressed, an affidavit shows.
The owners of the car were not injured in the incident.

That's odd, she doesn't look very "stressed" here.
Diagnosed with schizophrenia? Let's see the diagnosis.
Tracey Chapman sure has fallen on hard times, guess she was looking for a “Fast Car”.
“According to police, Perry initially resisted arrest but was taken into custody”
I know enough about Daytona cops to know that her resisting was VERY short lived.....those boys DO NOT put up with any nonsense or jackassery......AT ALL. LOL!
Her singing style makes me wanna take the gas pipe.
Years ago I thought Ormond Beach was a nice area. Maybe it changed, maybe I was wrong all along.
She should have done this in NYC. She would have had charges dropped and be on her way within hours.
Well, for one thing she obviously thinks she’s a mop.........................
“Marvette”
I didn’t need to look. But I did.
One of these days I hope to be wrong. Being right all the time gets boring.......................
So common it’s become cliche
she looks happy.
Tracy Chapman hasn’t smiled like that since the first Clinton Administration.
A suitable punishment - for starters bend over and start mopping the floor. Then do that every day while you are in prison for the entire prison.
the Vic and his wife must be from a no guns state. Florida is a stand your ground state and if this moronic perp had jumped in the car while wife was still in the passenger, a cognizant Florida woman would have told hubby to DUCK and spattered the driver’s seat quick, fast and in a hurry.
With a name like that, she could start her own musical group: “Marvette and the Carjackers.”
And the car owner would have been on his way to prison for holding the car jacker against her will.
No mysteries here.
Florida woman carjacker to Fireone: Get out the car mf’er.
Fireone to silly carjacker: You’re not from around here, are you?
Florida might be the last place you want to jack a ride.
