Woman suspected of driving stolen vehicle rams cop car, tries to make a run for it

APTOS — A 25-year-old woman allegedly driving a stolen vehicle tried to stall, then elude sheriff’s deputies Monday night, but was caught anyway.

The incident started around 10 p.m. when a deputy patrolling the neighborhoods off Freedom Boulevard near Highway 1, spotted a suspected stolen vehicle, according to the Sheriff’s Office. The deputy tried to stop the vehicle, but instead the driver, later identified as Rebecca Adams, rammed the stolen vehicle into the deputy’s police cruiser.

Then Adams jumped out of the vehicle and ran, the Sheriff’s Office reported. The deputy chased her and she was arrested on the 800 block of Encino Drive.

Adams was booked into County Jail on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon, evading arrest and vehicle theft, according to jail reports. She is being held on $45,000 bail.

Information about any injuries or damage to the vehicles was not released.
