Default attempted car jacking..

3 fuckers tried to car jack me a couple hours ago i was on my way to my cousins house and i pull up i get out of the car and realise there's a car behind me.. 2 guys get out and walk towards me with attitude and a fuking broken knee by the way they were walking They said "oi give us the fucking keys" my reply was yh fucking right then i just went in my mates house and called the police.. these 3 guys were islanders some some big motherfuckers.. they looked at the car for about 10mins like a proper look and then they went drove around the block a few times then disappeared. police turn up and take statements etc.. i got the reg number of the car but its no good as the reg dont match the car but the coppers say they will have them for harrasment if they catch them. they asked how much the car is valued at and then i told them the decided to say " o if we catch them we will have them for attempted theft"

been a eventful evening

cheeky 4kn bastards,i am surprised you just went in your mates house though,AND they had the bollocks or cheek to hang around for 10,what did they think you were going to do come back out an say "oh alright then here you go!" tbh if it had of happened to me i would have been trying to get back in it and do one and maybe there might of been a few skid marks left but i dont just think they would have been on the road !!

They were probably expecting me to come out with weaons etc.. my mate who is from walsall opend the door and wanted to see what they were doing it was best to calm it down as his wife is pregnant and is home alone..

p.s some off the area's make wolverhampton look like paradise.

Not a nice thing to happen, sounds like you were very lucky though mate. Im sure they could have got it if they really wanted it, nothing you can do if theres a few of them.

Happened to me twice, one time i stopped at the shops one night, left the engine running, as i was walking towards the shop some guy storms past me, pushes me out the way and jumps in my car, goes to set off, moves about 6 foot, then gets out and runs off!!!!!!! I think he changed his mind when he realised my brother was sat next to him in the passenger seat.

it was either they just wanted to take it for a blast and then give it me back or they were unsure of who i had in the house.there were 3 cars parked on the drive and mine was on te street so could have looked like we were having a little get together or something
