Sure, she should have avoided getting on the hood of the car but once she was on she had no choice but to stay on.
Adrenaline rush + everything happening really fast = people doing things they wouldn't do if they thought it out first. I suppose she assumed the woman wouldn't try to run over her.[>] Patrick Smith

All of that to prevent identity theft :confused: For future reference may I suggest reporting the incident, calling your bank/credit card company and go home in one piece?

"OMG, Jeanette, how did you end up paralyzed and in a wheelchair?!"
"Uhm, I didn't want this other woman to get away with my credit cards."
"Why didn't you just call the police, and then cancel your cards?"
"I guess I should have. Hey, can you hold that cup with straw up for me?"This career is not a sprint, it is a marathon.

I second that. But I, myself, might be inclined to do the "matrix thing," and jump on top of the car while holding onto the radio antenna. :D Maybe even pull the top of the car off like Agent Johnson. :p Originally Posted by Reconciler

Go right ahead...Personally if I were so inclined as to chase the perp I sure as heck wouldn't be jumping on the hood!!! Didn't the story say a store employee was already struggling with the women...take her down before she gets into the car.
