Girl, 15, who chased iPhone thief dies

A 15-year-old Southern California girl died from her injuries two days after she jumped onto the speeding car of a robber who snatched her iPhone.

Rubi Rubio briefly held onto the boot of the car before falling off and hitting her head in Santa Ana, Police Corporal Anthony Bertagna told the Orange County Register.

“According to witnesses, the vehicle was swerving in an attempt to get her off,” Bertagna said.
