A woman who broke into a home, stole an Ashland County Sheriff’s cruiser then fled on foot is now in jail.
She was arrested early this morning, after walking out of dense woods near Mohican, still cuffed, soaked, scratched and bitten. The woman was first caught late yesterday afternoon, after burglarizing a Loudonville home. She was handcuffed and placed in a cruiser. While deputies searched for more suspects, the woman somehow worked the cuffs to the front, then crawled into the front of the cruiser and took off. She abandoned the cruiser after a mile, and then fled on foot. She’s now facing a number of charges.
