Watch: Porsche owner run over with his own car by woman posing as buyer

Police appeal for information after incident involving Cayenne SUV being stolen in Canada

Police in Canada have issued an appeal seeking a woman who posed as the potential buyer of a Porsche before stealing it and running over the owner.
Video footage of the theft released by police shows a woman knocking on the victim’s door and feigning interest in the white Porsche SUV parked outside his house.
She then climbs into the car and suddenly hits reverse, ploughing into the owner, who had been standing at the rear.
He received serious but non-life threatening injuries, according to local media.
The suspect reverses out of the driveway, but appears to be having difficulty putting the car into gear, at which point the video ends.
Canadian police are seeking the driver of a second car seen in the video, whom they suspect is an accomplice to the theft.
In a statement, Peel Regional Police said: “On Friday, Sept 6 2024, at approximately 2pm, the suspect attended the victim’s residence near Winston Churchill and Eglinton Avenue, Mississauga, in response to an Auto Trader advertisement.”
They added: “The victim was selling his vehicle, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne. While viewing the vehicle, the suspect reversed rapidly, striking and injuring the victim before fleeing with the stolen vehicle.”
Police described the suspect as “as a female, South Asian, 5’5”, 120lbs, thin build, long brown hair, brown eyes, wearing a white long-sleeve shirt, brown skirt, and leather-strapped sandals.”
They have appealed for anyone who recognises her to come forward.
Peel police added that the public should be “vigilant” when selling valuable items online.
They recommended that residents use special designated zones at police stations for valuable trades in goods.
