Bikini-clad Woman Accused of Carjacking

Police in Mississippi say a woman was carjacked by a bikini-clad suspect, who they say later tried to rob an RV dealership.

Southaven Police Chief Tom Long said the 24-year-old suspect approached another woman in her driveway and demanded the car on Thursday. The woman gave up the car without a fight, asking only for time to remove her young children from inside.

Long said the suspect then drove the car to the business, where she told employees she had a gun and demanded money. The employees did not believe the claim and restrained her until officers arrived.

Police said the suspect appeared to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol. She was charged with carjacking and assault.
