Fleeing burglars ran over an Auckland woman with her own car last night, breaking her ankle, after she disturbed them inside her home.
The occupants of the Shelter Dr property in Greenhithe arrived home around 7.30pm and found two people in their house, Detective Senior Sergeant Simon Harrison of the Waitematā CIB said.
“During the incident, the victim’s vehicle was stolen. The victim has then been run over by the offenders as they fled, suffering a broken ankle,” Harrison said.
“The vehicle was found abandoned nearby and was towed for a forensic examination.”
