An 18-year-old woman who allegedly stole a Porsche and then ran over its owner in a caught-on-video incident in Mississauga earlier this month is now facing auto theft charges in Toronto.

Toronto police say that the suspect was charged on Monday while still in the custody of Peel Regional Police.

She is accused of being involved in two incidents that took place in Toronto’s west end over the span of five days earlier this month.

In the first incident on Sept. 11, a male and female attended a residence near Kipling Avenue and Rathburn Road for a pre-arranged meeting to purchase the victim’s vehicle.

Police say that the victim allowed the pair to enter the vehicle to view its interior and test out the engine, at which point they immediately drove away from the area.

The vehicle, a black 2021 BMW X6 with Ontario licence plate CPXC183, has not been recovered. 

The second incident happened on Sept. 16 in the Dufferin Street and Yorkdale Road area.
