Man accidentally shoots self at gun show
ROSELLE, Ill., Nov. 20 (UPI) -- An Illinois woman whose car was stolen and totaled by an escaped suspect says she is facing thousands of dollars of debt from the incident.
Domenica Saverino, 32, of Roselle, Ill., said she still owes $10,600 on the 2004 Volkswagen Jetta stolen Sept. 18 by Robert Maday, a bank robbery suspect who escaped from authorities as he was being taken to court Sept. 17. The carjacked vehicle was totaled at the end of a police chase, the Arlington Heights (Ill.) Daily Herald reported Friday.
Saverino said she has also received a $3,369 bill from a collection agency for a car damaged by Maday while he was driving the Jetta.
The woman said her insurance company agreed to pay $6,400 minus her $500 deductible toward the $10,000 she owes on the car. However, Saverino said she believes the car is worth more than the sum offered by Direct Auto Insurance Co. and has hired a lawyer to look into increasing the payout.
