Woman threatens to 'kill everyone' after crashing stolen car as she is arrested by police
A woman has been caught on camera threatening to kill people after allegedly going on a rampage behind the wheel of a stolen car in Adelaide.
Police were called to Bonython Park, in the north-west Park Lands of the city, about 8.15am on Thursday following reports of a woman causing a disturbance.
The 32-year-old woman from Vale Park is accused of stealing tools from a truck, damaging another car's windscreen and then stealing it
Witnesses said the carjacker was armed with a metal rake and had tried to steal an excavator before taking the stolen Hyuadni on a rampage.
She then drove the vehicle across the grass at Bonython Park before crashing it into a bollard and damaging an electrical box.
When police arrived at the scene, the Vale Park woman lashed out as officers arrested her.
In footage captured by 7News, the 32-year-old woman appeared to address the camera crew before dishing out a chilling warning.
'Aye, what's up. How you doing bro?' she said.
As officers led the woman into the back of a police van, she said: 'I'm going to kill everyone in that f***ing jail, including all of these cops.'
The woman continued to threaten the officers while refusing to cooperate.
'I'm going to kill of them, including the cops,' she said again as the officers picked up her legs and pushed her into the van.
The woman looked at the camera and claimed it was 'showing aggressiveness'.
She was charged with disorderly behaviour, theft, illegal interference, illegal use and property damage.
The owner of the Hyuandi said he had been feeding birds at the park when the carjacking took place.
Police confirmed the 32-year-old woman was bailed and is due to appear in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on July 30.
The Hyuandi was examined at the scene before being towed away.

BREAKING NEWS Major update after a woman's body was found dumped in bushland on the outskirts of Sydney
A man has been arrested following the shock discovery of a woman's body in Sydney 's west on Sunday. Officers attached to Nepean Police Area Command were called to a reserve off Irwin Street at Werrington, in Sydney's west, about 1.15pm on Sunday following the discovery of a 47-year-old woman's body. The area was sealed off and forensic experts sent in to analyse the scene. 'A crime scene has been established and an investigation has commenced by Nepean detectives, who are being assisted by the State Crime Command's Homicide Squad,' said a police spokesman. 'A canvass of the area is now being conducted by local police, assisted by PolAir.' Nepean Police Area Commander, Detective Superintendent Trent King said a number of belongings were found near the woman, who is believed to be middle aged. 'Other clothing items and other rubbish,' he told a press conference on Sunday evening. 'At this stage I've been informed that it was a woman. Potentially a middle-aged woman, but that's still part of the investigation.' The body was discovered by a passerby who saw the remains from a distance and called Triple Zero. 'It's a remote part of the reserve which backs onto sporting fields on one side and there is residential areas on the other,' Supt. King said. 'That's where we will be concentrating our canvassing this afternoon and this evening to try and ascertain movements as well as anything untoward over the last period of time.' It was unclear how long the body had been at the reserve or how she died. 'Certainly a period of time, very difficult to ascertain at this stage. The scene is currently being examined,' Supt. King said. 'We're hoping certainly in the next couple of days through both the postmortem examination as well as the examination today we will have further information. 'Until we identify the cause of death, the death is unexplained. Certainly in this circumstance we feel it necessary to take it to the highest level (of investigation).' Supt. King added officers from the Missing Persons Unit were combing through files to try and identify the woman. 'There's nothing to indicate a specific person at this stage from our perspective,' he said. 'However, as we speak, the missing persons unit are assisting us with anyone that is currently outstanding.'
