Hi-Risk security spokesperson Arthur Crewe said the two men were said to be armed with hand guns.
“It seems the Porsche driver’s instincts kicked in and he crashed into the attackers vehicle.”
The men then fled the scene.
A lookout was issued for their vehicle by various community police forums.
“We had most areas blocked off but we lost the suspects.”
Garsfontein police were yet to confirm the hijacking attempt.
