On Jan. 22, police allege the woman took a motor vehicle without consent and refused to return it to its rightful owner, said police. 

While the vehicle was in her possession, she contacted the victim and suggested that should money be provided to her, the victim could have the vehicle back.  

At the time of this incident, and on Jan. 29, the woman was under court-ordered conditions. Police believe she is in the Sudbury area. 

She is wanted for theft of a motor vehicle, possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000, extortion, breach of recognizance and failing to attend court.

She is described as standing 5-5 and weighing 168 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes.
