Police in New Jersey are searching for a woman who is accused of stealing packages off of the front porches of homes.

When she was approached by an officer on Friday, she allegedly hit the officer with her car when fleeing, according to police.

Officers in Gloucester Township were informed that a woman known by police as a "porch pirate" was seen in the Sicklerville section of the township in the afternoon.

At approximately 1:39 p.m. on Friday, Gloucester Township police received an anonymous tip that Ebony Gomez, of Jacksonville, Florida, was operating a white Dodge Journey in Sicklerville, according to a Facebook post. Gomez and the vehicle were linked to recent package thefts, according to police.

Officers located the vehicle, which had a license plate listed as stolen, on Jarvis Road and conducted a motor vehicle stop. Juveniles were observed unrestrained inside the vehicle before it fled at a "high rate of speed," authorities say.

[...]

Gomez was captured on video stealing packages from two residences in the Cherrywood development on Dec. 1 and one in the Mayfair Woods development on Dec. 2, according to Gloucester Township police. During one incident, Gomez allegedly knocked on the door of a house, took a package, and when the resident confronted her she claimed to work for UPS and said she accidentally delivered it to the wrong home."

Jersey is wild sometimes. She's lucky they didn't charge her with attempted murder of a LE officer.
