Carjacker steals LAPD vehicle with cop still inside, then drags her down road before crashing

A carjacker stole a Los Angeles police SUV with a female cop still inside — before speeding off and crashing it just after the female officer was “ejected” and dragged down the road, according to officials.

The unidentified officer was conducting “security detail” in downtown LA at about 3:30 a.m. Sunday when the man suddenly jumped into the squad car and attacked her, NBC LA reported.

The cop was “ejected” from the vehicle at some point and fell onto the road as the suspect fled, police said.

It was unclear if the officer was pushed, but she was dragged down the road, suffering non-life-threatening injuries, police told KABC.

She was INSIDE the car when it was “carjacked”?

Nothing in article says the perp was armed.

Cop was. Why didn’t she draw on him?

Instead, the woman cop jumped out.

Think this would have happened with a 200lb man?

I had to call cops for a neighbor disturbance in LA. Female cop who showed up was under 5’5’’ and couldn’t have weighed more than 110 lbs. A half-assed push would’ve put her on the ground.

So next time you need a cop, really really need one, well....

Newspaper comic strip “Frank and Ernest.”

The two are walking through a city area.
“They say this is the most dangerous area of town.”

Police car passing them has a sign on the door:

Officers Carry No More Than $20 in Cash.

Anytime a cop shoots or arrests someone in LA, the cop is brought up on charges ‘cause, racism.

That poor Cop is most like going on sick leave till near Labor Day. Being “ejected” then dragged like a chain will probably mess her back up for good.
Give her an MRI too assess the damage.
Of course, she may also be psychologically traumatized.
Is it normal practice for a Cop to leave keys in their car and walk away? Even at 3am.

Gascon will have him released this afternoon with a citation and some freebies from the city.

That’s the problem.....women in general just don’t have the physical strength for a job like street cop.

In my church’s prison ministry I’ve been in many facilities and female prison guards are common.
Every one of ‘em I saw that interacted directly with inmates was outfitted with a bottle of mace the size of a small fire extinguisher.

Recently here a female cop was attempting to arrest a male shoplifter at Walmart....fortunately a male cop arrived as backup because the perp was in the process of beating the living hell out of the female cop......to the point she was transported to a local hospital.

But hey, we’ve got diversity so it’s all good!

Exactly. Agree.

In the coming physical battles before the election we will need every law enforcement officer to be on our side.

They have been criticized, humiliated, defunded, brought before biased review boards and shot at by confident perps.

We must get together and unite. No more allowing the Marxist “divide and conquer” to succeed.

Please remember my tagline.

I’m sure the woke DA will let the poor oppressed soul out with no bail.

I’ll bet the cop tried to jump into the moving car then got dragged. Cops keep doing this and they keep getting hurt.

You might want to read the headline ...

Is it marked vehicle or unmarked? It could make a big difference

If it is marked “LAPD”, it says a lot

If it is unmarked, it’s just regular LA day

Uh, all popo cars should be manual transmission. Sure would cut down on thefts. 😊👍

LAPD Captain: “OK, who was providing security to the “security detail”?”
