A Detroit woman went viral after tracking down her stolen car and confronting the thief herself.
“I slashed all the tires and I thought that he was going to take off, and I didn’t know how long it was going to take for the police to pull up. And I refused to let him pull off again,” Bianca Chambers, the rightful owner of the Mercedes-Benz, told KIRO 7 after she found the car thief in a barbershop.
Chambers received reports of the whereabouts of her car on social media after the car thieves drove around town for two days, even stopping by a strip mall where she owns a business.
“They were driving. They were having a good time. They were smoking but, yes, when I got my car, it was very clean,” Chambers said, adding that the thief even got the vehicle detailed in the two days they had it.
“You’re just the dumbest criminal, that’s all. You’re joyriding in my car like nobody was going to see,” Chambers said.
Video of her dragging the unidentified thief out of a barbershop went viral online.
