Martin had been handcuffed in July while police investigated claims she threatened a couple with a screwdriver, WISN reported. Martin was led to a squad car but slipped out of her handcuffs, driving away with the vehicle before abandoning it several blocks later, the television station reported.
Martin was found by a K-9 several moments later.
The officers involved in her arrest were not disciplined, WISN reported.
