MADISON (WKOW) – Madison police say a pregnant woman was taken to a hospital after a man stole her car and drove into it on Sunday afternoon.

Madison police responded to reports of a car theft just before 12:30 a.m. at the Kwik Trip gas station in the 7700 block of Mineral Point Road.

According to police, the owner of the car said she was putting air in her tires when a man got into the running car.

Officials say he put the car backwards to take off and drove on the victim’s right leg while she tried to remove him from her car.

Officers said the 34-year-old victim was 20 weeks pregnant and was taken to medical attention for soft tissue injuries to her leg.

Later that evening, Madison police released a photo of the suspect, apparently from a security camera.

Investigators are asking anyone who knows the man to call the Madison Police Department.
