THIS is the shocking moment £35,000 BMW with a beloved dog in the back was stolen by thugs – before the elderly victim was hit with her own car.
A Ring doorbell camera captured the thief lurking outside the pensioner’s home in Bexleyheath, south east London yesterday morning.
He lay in wait as the woman parked on her driveway and went inside, leaving the driver-side door open and the engine still on.
The thug then got out of his VW Golf and jumped into the the BMW X1.
He then reversed out of the drive, hitting the woman as she and her son rushed out to stop him.
The injured OAP realised that her pug Daisy was still in the back of the X1, a model worth £34,935 when new.
