successfully, the whole ordeal caught on a surveillance camera at a gas station. As the man was walking to his car from the convenience store, he was attacked by what he said were three

, which we expect nothing less from a carjacker. Oddly enough, the third teen didn’t get involved in the scuffle.

While they were wrestling, the victim’s keys fell out of his pocket, breaking the fob in half so it no longer worked. Then the one teen put him in a chokehold while the other two piled into the unlocked car.

The guy told WUSA9 he found an AR-15 magazine on the ground after the teens ran off. He assumes it dropped out of one of the kids’ pockets during the scuffle, even though he didn’t see an AR-15 on them. We’re wondering how he knows what kind of **** it goes to, but that’s a question we don’t have an answer to.

What we do know is carjackers often are armed, so fighting back against them does come with some risk. However, we’ve seen compliant people get gunned or ran down by them, so it’s just a risky situation all around. Thankfully this guy lived  to tell the tale.
