A Miami woman faces 51 counts of breaking and entering into Cobb County cars, according to a police report.

Maritza Ramirez was arrested Feb. 8 on Woodlawn Drive without a valid driver’s license.

She told police she had a Florida driver’s license, but didn’t have it on her person.

The seven-page warrant lists 51 incidents where Ramirez allegedly broke into cars and stole bank cards for the purpose of financial transaction fraud.

Many of the cars were reportedly unlocked.

Ramirez is accused of entering cars throughout Cobb County from November 2016 through February.

She is being held in the Cobb County jail.
