Teenager Charged in Porsche Theft and Hit-and-Run in Mississauga, Linked to Toronto Auto Thefts
The police investigation reveals that Badshaw was involved in two separate theft attempts over a five-day period earlier this month.
An 18-year-old woman, Sarah Badshaw, is now facing serious charges in connection with an auto theft incident that left a vehicle owner injured in Mississauga. The young Brampton resident was arrested while still in custody of Peel Regional Police and was charged on Monday with multiple offenses related to two auto theft incidents in Toronto.
The police investigation reveals that Badshaw was involved in two separate theft attempts over a five-day period earlier this month. The first incident occurred on September 11 near Kipling Avenue and Rathburn Road, where a male and female pair met the victim under the pretense of purchasing his vehicle. After gaining access to the interior of the 2021 black BMW X6, the duo fled the scene with the car, which remains unaccounted for.
The second theft attempt happened on September 16 at a parking lot near Dufferin Street and Yorkdale Road. Here, Badshaw exhibited suspicious behavior, appearing very nervous, prompting the victim to terminate the meeting and leave the area without further incident. This change in demeanor raised alarms for the victim, demonstrating the increasing risk associated with private vehicle sales.
