Carjackers get job done in servo

Knife-wielding carjackers targeted a man rolling a cigarette at a Dandenong service station.
The victim had just filled up his vehicle at the 7-Eleven on Clow Street about 11.30pm on Saturday 7 January.
He’d pulled over to roll the cigarette when four men approached.
One had a knife and demanded the victim get out of his vehicle, a red 2005 Ford Falcon sedan, and hand over the keys.
The victim complied and the men drove off.
He described them as having accents and appearing to be of Islander origin. He said they were wearing sunglasses and dark clothing.
Police later recovered the car in Cranbourne.
They appealed for anyone with information about the incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
