WESTMINSTER — A 50-year-old woman was reported in good condition after a man stole her car Tuesday night and then ran over her twice.
Police and the hospital declined to identify the woman or her 49-year-old husband, who was not injured in the incident at Quartz Street and Brooke Avenue.
The couple’s car was rammed from behind by two men driving a stolen car, said Police Lt. Larry Woessner. When the husband got into a fight with the other driver, the passenger in the stolen car got out and pointed a gun at the husband. Then the first man got into the couple’s car and drove away with the woman inside.
About two blocks away, the assailant pushed the woman out of the car and ran over her twice.
