Internet - One woman was on her daily commute to work when police shut down an intersection to chase a criminal... right into her car!

TikTok user Roxana decided to start filming at an intersection because traffic had been suddenly stopped by a swarm of police.

Curious, the woman recorded the situation with her mobile phone. "What's going on here?", she asked aloud.

The scenes that followed left thousands of users shocked, as the commuter quickly discovered the reason for police intervention.

She panned over to a large truck and trailer next to her, and scrambling over it was a man who definitely looked like he was on the run.

"It's because of him," the woman yells, clearly agitated, as the wanted man climbs off the truck. But then things escalate even further as the fugitive makes a beeline straight for her car!

"What the f***," Roxana shouts, just as the man grabs her door handle and tries to get in!

Luckily, she was smart enough to make sure all her doors were locked. But that was by no means the end of the situation!

Roxana's bigger concern is being late for work!

Unable to get in, the man tries to runs around her car, but not before a cop tackles him to the pavement in front of her and proceeds to handcuff the guy.

Most people would have had a meltdown if someone evaded arrest by trying to get into their car, but Roxana remained surprisingly calm throughout the video.

"I'm going to be late for work," she says mildly at the end.

Thousands of TikTok users couldn't quite believe that her job was the first thing that came to mind for her. "Okay, your comments have done my head in," wrote one user.

Everyone was left wondering if she did make it to work on time. At least she has video evidence for her boss!

The clip definitely proves how important it is to always have your car doors locked while driving!
