Two men in a silver Chrysler 300 sped up to a woman in front of a Woodside Drive house at about 9:20 p.m. Jan. 29, pulled out a handgun and robbed her, she told Sheriff’s Office deputies.

The woman, 30-year-old Elizabeth Tremogli, told deputies that she was walking home from a friend’s house when the car pulled up alongside her. The man in the passenger seat pointed a black handgun at her while the driver rummaged through her pockets, stealing $70 and a pack of Newport cigarettes, she told deputies.

Tremogli told deputies that the man with the gun said something to her — the details are redacted in the Sheriff’s Office report — and that the two “got back inside the vehicle and accelerated, making a loud screeching noise.”

She told deputies that the driver was wearing a gray hoodie, but didn’t remember anything else about what they were wearing. Tremogli said she’d never seen the men or the car before.

Deputies stopped a silver Chrysler 300 with a male driver and passenger on Pine Lakes Parkway, but Tremogli came out to look at the car and the men and said that they were not the men who’d robbed her, and that it was not the same car.

Deputies spoke with Tremogli’s neighbors, but none said they had seen or heard the robbery.

At about 9:53, Bunnell Police Department officers saw a car matching the victim’s description, and chased it until it crossed the Volusia County line, then alerted the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office.

At about 10:17 p.m., Daytona Beach Police Department officers pursued a car matching Tremogli’s description. They found the car unoccupied at10:58 p.m. in Daytona Beach. Volusia County dispatch asked Flagler County deputies to bring Tremogli to see the car, but “she declined due to ‘feeling tired,’” according to the incident report.

Tremogli was arrested once in Flagler County, on Jan. 16, 2015, on charges of grand theft and resisting arrest without violence, according to Flagler County jail records.
