One Milwaukee woman took dramatic action to stop a carjacker from taking off with her vehicle.
Melissa Smith, 27, was filling up her white Subaru Outback at an area gas station Tuesday afternoon when an unidentified man hopped out of a dark sedan and into the driver's seat of her car. What happened next was captured in surveillance video that has since gone viral.
Smith, apparently without thinking, immediately hopped onto the hood of her car to prevent the thief from driving off.
"This is not happening to me today," Smith told local outlet WTMJ. "So I jumped on the top and held on for dear life."
Smith then began screaming at the top of her lungs while the would-be carjacker attempted to fling her off the hood by abruptly hitting the vehicle's brakes. Eventually, he gave up, hopping out of the car and back into his original sedan--but not before swiping her purse, phone and wallet.
Police are still searching for the suspects.
