A woman shot an alleged car thief Dec. 19 in a gas station parking lot in Kentucky after tracking her vehicle via cellphone, according to local police.
The woman and her boyfriend first reported their Ford Fusion as stolen in Ohio, according to the Fort Mitchell Police Department (FMPD). The couple tracked the car to the Kroger gas pumps in Kentucky using an app on her phone, FMPD said.
“During a confrontation between the vehicle’s owners and the alleged thief, one of the owners produced a handgun and fired a single shot which struck the car thief in the neck,” FMPD said in a news release.
The man was transported to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center for “treatment of a non-life-threatening wound of undetermined cause,” FMPD said.
The woman said she fired the gun “in defense of her boyfriend’s life,” police said. Her boyfriend “entered the passenger side of the vehicle” during the confrontation, and the alleged thief attempted to drive away with him in the car, according to FMPD.
