It appears as if the couple were about to leave their driveway in Van Dyk Park, Boksburg, on Thursday night last week, when they were accosted by armed men and forced out of their vehicle.
The suspects could not reverse the car and ran back to their getaway car. This is when the male victim jumped back into the car and reversed into the suspects’ car.
