Police say the woman was hitting a security guard who tried to stop her and lost her top and bra during the struggle. She then took off running to her car, leaving behind her purse with her ID inside.
The thief drove off in a white Mercedes-Benz, police said, but a witness was able to record a license plate.
Police said they were holding off from releasing surveillance video as they conducted their investigation.
The woman remains at large.
