It’s a random, sad case for the owner of this Buick Lucerne. According to video from local news affiliate KTLA, a random woman took to the Buick to lash out and utterly destroy the vehicle.
The owner states she left her car at the location overnight in Koreatown on Thanksgiving. While celebrating with friends, a woman was caught on camera approaching the vehicle and immediately began torturing the car. And we mean torture.
She brought a wooden stake with needles to slash each tire, then proceeded to stomp on the roof of the vehicle until a massive dent was created. She broke the grille, gas cap and other pieces off from the Buick. The most disturbing part? She ripped the wiper blade assemblies off and began etching random words and phrases into the paint all over the body of the Buick. Nothing written was coherent.
The incident took place between 3 a.m. and 9 a.m. until the police were finally called to the scene. The woman was taken to the hospital for a 72-hour mental health hold.
As for the owner, she states she recently lost her job and does not have the proper insurance coverage to cover her now totaled Buick.

I think GM Authority should start a Gofundme for this person.
Tyler, you are so right that she is deserving of assistance. A friend of the owner has already set up a GoFundMe page that I found in an earlier news source. Thankfully the support has been very good and hope it continues.

Wow that’s sad ! Sure wish Buick would bring back a full size sedan like the Lucerne again. I would trade my 08 Lucerne in a minute.
Where can I see this video?
The original video has been taken down on YouTube, but we’ve updated the story with video from KTLA.

Thanks. Crazy story.
The owner didn’t deserve this, thanks to everyone who helps out.
However, compared to BMW’s latest art car by Baldessari, this is MUCH better. Perhaps it could be sold to the Getty Center?
The woman is out on the streets again. My how inefficient our system is. She should be locked up and getting help and made to pay for her random act. As of now the Go Fund Me acct. was 10 or 12 thousand bucks, that is a good one on society as a whole considering we are headed into the Christmas season.
