Roberts attempted to smash through the glass window on the front side of the car. She was also helped by a neighbor outside of their New York home.
The witness described the tense scene and said, “His wife, Deborah, was understandably very upset. She had left her phone and other possessions inside their Tesla, which had malfunctioned and wouldn’t unlock, so she was trying to smash in a window.”
