An Endeavour Hills man was held at gunpoint while thieves ransacked his car on Amalfi Drive, just after 6pm on Sunday 22 January.
Police said the 25-year-old had left a barbecue at his home and was on his way to the nearby service station when he was confronted by a white sedan travelling on the wrong side of the road towards him.
The victim stopped his car and put his keys in his pocket when two men, one of Caucasian and one of Islander appearance, got out of the white car and approached the victim’s car.
The victim got out of his car and it was then the man of Islander appearance produced a black handgun and aimed it at the victim demanding he hand over his car keys.
The victim refused to comply and scuffle broke out between the two men and ended with the Caucasian man kicking the victim numerous times.
The two men managed to steal various items from the victim’s car before returning to their white car and fleeing the scene.
The car was described as a white sedan, possibly a Toyota or a Honda, and police ask anyone who may have seen the incident or a similar car in the area at the time to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
