A woman kicked through the back window of a police cruiser in Los Angeles.
The glass shattered after she forced her feet through the barrier after she was detained near the intersection of Marianna Avenue and Valley Boulevard at around 11 p.m Thursday, a Los Angeles Police Department spokesman said.
It is believed the woman was intoxicated, though it is unclear she was under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
She was detained after some firemen had to stop her driving off in a vehicle, police said, when they came to the aid of a victim of an assault. LAPD officers soon arrived and put her in the back of their patrol car. Within a few minutes she started yelling and screaming, then smashed the window.
She was placed in leg restraints, then taken to the hospital for a psychological evaluation.
The woman may be charged later with battery on a firefighter, or with vandalism of a patrol car.
