In what sounds like a Florida Man story but is all Chicago, a woman is in custody after crashing a stolen car into five parked cars and a house on the same block in Portage Park on Thursday morning, Chicago police said.

The suspect stole a car that was warming up unattended in the 4800 block of W Warwick Ave., Officer Thomas Sweeney, a Chicago police spokesman, told Chicagoist. When officers arrived on the scene at around 8:30 a.m. they discovered the woman had allegedly struck five different parked cars and the house, Sweeney said.

No injuries were reported.

Charges are pending as of late Thursday afternoon.
