On January 11, Krystal Whipple, 21, was taken into custody by a team of Phoenix-area fugitive hunters involving local police, county investigators and FBI agents
A woman sought for almost two weeks by authorities in Las Vegas after allegedly skipping out on a $35 manicure and using a stolen car to run over and kill a salon worker who tried to stop her has been extradited to Nevada following her arrest in Arizona, police said Friday.
On January 11, Krystal Whipple, 21, was taken into custody by a team of Phoenix-area fugitive hunters involving local police, county investigators and FBI agents, Las Vegas law enforcement said.
Last Saturday, Whipple appeared before a judge in Maricopa County, Arizona following her arrest in Glendale.
During her court appearance, Whipple signed a waiver of extradition, allowing authorities to return her to Nevada without any additional court appearances in Arizona.
Whipple was booked into the Clark County Detention Center on Friday, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
She was booked without bail.
Whipple was caught on surveillance footage fatally running over a Las Vegas manicurist, Ngoc Q. Nguyen, 51, after she allegedly tried to skip out on paying for a manicure on December 29.
In the horrifying moment caught on video, the mom-of-three was dragged 50 feet across a Las Vegas parking lot and killed by the customer who refused to pay $35 for acrylic nails, according to the arrest warrant.
After Whipple's manicure, she tried to pay with a credit card that was repeatedly declined.
She then told the salon workers that she was going to her car to retrieve the money, police said.

Police said Whipple, 21, (right), was captured after weeks on the run following the hit-and-run death of mother-of-three Nhu Ngoc Quynh Nguyen (pictured left) in December
That was when Nguyen noticed Whipple starting the engine of a rental car.
Nguyen rushed toward the vehicle and jumped in front of the car in an attempt to stop Whipple.
According to court records, Whipple faces charges of murder with a deadly weapon, burglary and robbery with a deadly weapon.
Court records indicated she was scheduled to appear for an arrest warrant return hearing on Saturday morning.
A warrant for Whipple's arrest was issued January 4 for the robbery and murder of Nguyen, of Garden Grove, California.

Whipple is suspected of hitting Nhu Nguyen in a stolen rental car outside Crystal Nails & Spa on December 29.
While she was on the run from authorities, Whipple's family made an emotional plea for her to turn herself in.
Sharon Whipple, the mother of suspect Krystal Whipple, sitting alongside Krystal's grandmother, tearfully called on her to come forward in an interview with ABC News airing on Good Morning America.
'You can't run baby, you cannot run' Sharon Whipple said directly to the camera. 'You have to come forward, baby.'
Las Vegas police released storefront security video footage of the Saturday afternoon incident along with a plea for information on the whereabouts of the suspect, Krystal Whipple
The woman can be seen getting into the stolen car after her card was declined. She had told salon workers she would come back to pay another way but fled

The search for 21-year-old Krystal Whipple following the incident around a mile and a half from the Las Vegas Strip entered its ninth day when mother and grandmother made their plea.
'I'm so sorry that you lost your mom, and I couldn't imagine how you feel,' Sharon Whipple says to the family of Nguyen. 'And I hope you find it in your heart to forgive my daughter and my family.'
'We're so sorry,' the visibly distressed grandmother adds.
'I don't know the laws and I don't care what it'll take, we'll get you a lawyer, we will fix this, just come home,' Krystal's mother pleaded in another part of the interview that aired on KTNV News. 'Nobody's mad, it's gonna be ok.'
'Our mom was really loved by the community here,' Anne Trinh, the eldest of Nguyen's three daughters, had told 'Good Morning America' on Saturday. 'It's very traumatizing.'
Her family said she had been working 12 to 14-hour days to send her daughters, aged 20, 25, and 28, to college.

As part of their manhunt, cops released a booking photo of Whipple from an arrest in April and security footage of the moment the customer left the store after her card was declined.
In the video a woman can be seen heading to the car after telling salon workers she would come back to pay another way.
But when they spotted her beginning to drive away Nguyen and her partner Sonny Chung ran out to stop the customer.
Nguyen, of Garden Grove, California, is seen jumping in front of the car as Chung clings to the back of the vehicle and the customer speeds away.
The manicurist is then thrown under the stolen black Camaro and dragged 50 feet along the parking lot before being left for dead by the driver.
Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Ray Spencer said: 'Please take a close look at this photo. It is important we get this suspect into custody as the victim's family and this community deserve to have her answer for this horrible crime.'
Her family said Nhu Ngoc Quynh Nguyen had been working to send her daughters to college
Nguyen's family came to the salon on Sunday morning, placing flowers, candles, and a framed photo of her in the front. A sign on the door said the salon will be closed 'until further notice'
Speaking to The Las Vegas Review Journal Sonny said: 'My wife ran out and tried to stop her, and then she rolled forward.
'She kept pushing the gas, and my wife fell off, and she kept pushing more, and she dragged her from here to over there.
'I tried to hold the car back, but I'm not Superman. She ran off for $35 and killed my wife - $35 to run my wife over.'
The rental car is understood to have been stolen around three weeks before the killing.
The authorities found it abandoned and unoccupied at a nearby apartment complex on the same night of Nguyen's death.

Police identified Whipple as a suspect by tracking her recent purchases and finding fingerprints in a stolen rental car, The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
But the booking photo stems from her arrest over several warrants, including failure to show up to court on several traffic-related citations.
Whipple pleaded guilty to attempting to possess a stolen vehicle after a second warrant was issued in a 2016 case.
She received probation in the stolen vehicle case, according to Clark County court records.
A warrant for her arrest was issued by a judge after she failed to make payments in the case and did not show up to court for a status check.
The court records show she was arrested on the warrant and she was sentenced to four months in the Clark County Detention Center after her probation was revoked.
An attorney who represented Whipple at that time said he doesn't represent her now.

On a fundraising page, Ms Nguyen's family paid tribute to saying: 'We miss her very much and will always hold her dear in our hearts and memories.
'She would never buy anything for herself. Any gifts that she received would be passed to her daughters, rather than keeping it for herself.
'She never asked for anything in return, besides more grandchildren. Every penny that she had accumulated always go towards her family.'
Nguyen was rushed to University Medical Center but could not be saved and the Clark County Coroner's Office said the cause of death was multiple blunt force injuries.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
