A 36-year-old woman is behind bars after police say she forcefully took a man’s vehicle on Michigan Avenue in Inkster. Officers were called to the intersection of Michigan and Isabelle on December 2, where the victim reported that a woman assaulted him and took off in his car.
Patrol units and detectives tracked the stolen vehicle and found it within half an hour. The suspect, identified as Sarah Pinion, allegedly fought with officers before being taken into custody.
Prosecutors have charged Pinion with unlawful driving away of a motor vehicle, receiving and concealing stolen property involving a motor vehicle, assaulting or obstructing a police officer, and possession of narcotics paraphernalia. She is also charged as a habitual offender due to past felony convictions.
Pinion was arraigned in the 22nd District Court and is being held on a $20,000 bond with 10% required to post. If released, she is ordered to wear a GPS tether. For now, she remains in custody at the Wayne County Jail as the case moves forward.
