Case Number: 1407220069
An 18 year old female victim called Corpus Christi Police and told them she was driving down S. Padre Island Dr. near Kostoryz Rd. when she saw her 23 year old ex-boyfriend speeding up behind her in a truck. The male suspect used his truck to ram into the passenger side of the vehicle she was in. After being hit, the male stopped right in front of her at an angle, so she could not drive forward. He got out of his truck and jumped on the hood of her car screaming that he wasn`t getting off the car until she gave the car to him. He grabbed her keys and then moved his truck to the parking lot of a business located in the 3500 block of S. Padre Island Dr. The suspect then came back out to the street and grabbed her out of the car by force. He attempted to speed off but tore off the front bumper of her car. He got out and put the bumper in the back seat. The female also said she was unable to get her 10 month old son that she had with the male out of the vehicle before he took off in the car leaving her standing in the parking lot. A few minutes later, officers were able to contact a family member of the suspect who said he had the child after the suspect had dropped the kid off to him and left. Officers are currently still looking for the male suspect and the female’s vehicle. The truck the suspect left behind was impounded.
