Woman seizes police car for 2-hour ride

Fri Mar 3, 8:31 AM ET
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A 25-year-old woman grabbed a sheriff deputy's sports utility vehicle on Thursday and led police on a two-hour televised car chase through suburban Los Angeles County.
No injuries were reported in the pursuit -- a staple of local TV news in the sprawling car capital of the world.
Deputy Dave Jennings said the woman, who was described as having a long criminal record, was being questioned in the back seat of a deputy's SUV about a stolen vehicle. She made her way into the front seat and drove off.
Followed by police cars and news helicopters, the woman screamed and sobbed into the on-board radio as officers tried to calm her down. In the end, the woman came to a stop and was arrested at gunpoint.
She is expected to face charges of theft and evading arrest.
