Bodycam: Police arrest driver accused of stealing from elderly woman

ATLANTA – Body cameras captured the moment Atlanta police officers chased and arrested a woman accused of armed robbery.

Officials say 36-year-old Jenee Johnson was wanted for stealing an elderly woman’s cellphone.

Atlanta police found Johnson at a car wash and attempted to stop her there. Footage from an APD officer’s dashcam showed Johnson backing up and fleeing the scene.

The chase continued onto Interstate 285, where an officer used a PIT maneuver to flip the SUV and stop it on the side of the busy road.

The woman tried to jump over the median to escape, but officers were quickly able to stop her from escaping.

DeKalb County officials charged Johnson with armed robbery, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, theft by receiving stolen property and fleeing or attempting to elude police.
