A feisty young woman who was attacked in the driveway of her home in a terrifying hijacking ordeal turned the tables on her attackers when she managed to punch one of them hard before they fled in her car.
The 24-year-old, who did not want to be named as she fears for her safety, is from George but moved to Port Elizabeth to complete her business management internship.
She was left with a few bruises and a swollen lip after fighting off two hijackers who ambushed her in the driveway of her Summerstrand home.
The hijacking happened at about 11pm on Thursday, shortly after she arrived at her Sharwood Street house.
In the confrontation, the young woman managed to knock a gun out of one of the hijacker’s hands, only to realise it was a toy pistol.
By the early hours of yesterday, the VW Golf had been found abandoned outside a block of flats in Algoa Park, with a real firearm found hidden in the nearby bushes.
Yesterday, the woman recalled her ordeal, hoping it would warn others and prevent them from falling victim to similar attacks.
