CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Police in North Carolina say they can’t find the white woman recorded threatening her black neighbors while they waited for AAA.

Charlotte-Mecklenburg police tell news outlets they attempted to serve a warrant Tuesday on 51-year-old Susan Westwood for misusing 911. Criminal summons for communicating threats and simple assault were issued last week.

And now police have released audio from the 911 calls. Leisa and Mary Garris called twice to report harassment. Westwood called 911 as well, telling the dispatcher she would pay $2,500 “to get them out of here.”

Westwood has since been fired from the $125,000-per-year job she boasted about while the sisters recorded the encounter.

The sisters’ attorney Michael Phillips says the apartment complex has agreed to initiate a process of evicting Westwood.
