She finished the job — no matter what.
A DoorDash driver in Texas pushed through a frightening moment to complete a delivery just after she was hit by a robbery suspect fleeing police during a high-speed chase.
The unidentified driver had stopped outside a customer’s home in Houston’s Greater Greenspoint area Wednesday afternoon as police sirens could be heard nearby, according to video obtained by KTRK.
Holding the customer’s food, the driver stepped out of her vehicle and spotted a silver sedan speeding toward her from down the street, forcing her to press herself back against the side of her car.
Although she tried to get out of the way, the fleeing driver crashed into her vehicle before striking the delivery worker, throwing her onto the hood of the suspect’s car.
Authorities identified the suspect as Torrance Whitaker. After the crash, he jumped out of the car and ran toward the opposite side of the street, leaving the shaken woman behind.
Moments later, the driver picked up the order, which had been thrown onto the roadway, and hurried to the sidewalk as multiple police cruisers continued pursuing Whitaker.
As chaos rang through the neighborhood, the delivery driver nonchalantly walked to the front door of her customer’s home and dropped off the order.
“It’s amazing how the girl just delivered the food. I asked her if she was okay, and she said she was okay,” neighbor Lily Portillo told the outlet. “She needs a big tip. I really hope somebody finds her and hope she’s okay.”
Police launched a manhunt through the neighborhood looking for Whitaker, as one officer returned to the scene to check in on the woman.
“Yeah, I’m good,” she told the concerned officer.
The woman didn’t break any bones but was left in a lot of pain after the crash, the outlet reported.
She was looking into filing a claim against Whitaker’s car insurance for the damage to her vehicle.
She also filed a complaint against Whitaker with the Houston Police Department, alleging Torrance “unlawfully, intentionally, knowingly, and recklessly caused bodily injury” to her, according to court records viewed by The Post.
Whitaker, who was wanted for burglary, jumped over fences and through several homes’ yards before he was eventually stopped by a Houston Police K-9 unit.
Whitaker was charged with felony evading arrest and aggravated assault on the DoorDash driver, according to court documents viewed by The Post.
