A man is dead after he was run over by the driver of a car from which he was allegedly trying steal a catalytic converter in Palmdale.

Just before 6 p.m. Tuesday in the 39000 block of 10th Street West, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department deputies found a man lying on the ground near a four-by-four Ford Excursion and another smaller vehicle next to it, the department said in a press release.

Investigators discovered that the driver of the Ford had been asleep in her vehicle when she awoke to a man sawing off her vehicle’s catalytic converter, and she immediately put her car in reverse, the LASD said.

After she “felt a bump like she ran something over,” she stopped her vehicle and called 911 for assistance for the man, the release said.

The suspect was taken by ambulance to Antelope Valley Hospital, where he was declared dead.

The three people, a man and two women, who accompanied the deceased suspect in the smaller vehicle were arrested by deputies.

There are some consequences that even George Soros and his bought minions can’t avoid.

No where does it say they received a call. Based on this statement above, there was body laying in the street, yet no one call the cops? The deputies just happened across the body?

Seems more odd.

Never mind, after she threw it in reverse, and “felt a bump” she called 911 for assistance....That was very kind of her.

Looks like she got to clean up the environment and the streets at the same time. Good on her!

There was a guy in Omaha who was hit while crossing the interstate in the middle of the night. A week or two later, an elderly couple driving an RV to California had taken it in for service and the service person found a tennis shoe wedged underneath. The husband recaled hitting something but thought it was an animal.

He f@cked around... and found out.
