Naked woman takes squad car, strikes Chicago police officer

CHICAGO (AP) - A Chicago police officer has been injured after a naked woman got into his squad car and struck him while driving away.

The officer stopped to help the woman about 9:40 a.m. Monday, Police Superintendent David Brown told reporters.

'œShe charged the officer, assaulted the officer, got in the squad car, took the squad car and drove off," Brown said. 'œWe don't know why the woman was laying in the street unclothed.'ť

The woman later crashed the car and was arrested. She and the officer were treated at a hospital.
