Apparently, there is video of this here

A store clerk was hit and injured by a suspected shoplifter’s car.
Police say the incident happened around 6 p.m. on December 16 at the Academy store at 1351 S Round Rock.
The 38 YO female store clerk heard the anti-theft alarm at the store and saw a woman rapidly leaving the store and heading for the parking lot.
The woman got into a car, which was parked in a handicap parking spot near the store’s front doors.
The employee followed her and attempted to get the car’s license plate number.
That’s when the fleeing suspect’s vehicle backed into the store clerk causing minor leg injuries.
Police describe the single suspect as:
Hispanic female
30 to 35 years old
5’5”
about 240 pounds
She has long black hair worn in a braided ponytail. At the time of the offense, she was wearing a heavy pink jacket, trimmed with black fur, and carrying a large maroon handbag.
If convicted, the woman faces charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. It is not known what merchandise was taken.
