Gun pointed at Perth man during violent car-jacking in Mirrabooka

A Perth man has been left shaken after he allegedly had a gun pointed at him during a violent car-jacking in Mirrabooka on Monday evening.

The 28-year-old man was driving west along Beach Road in a black Volkswagen Jetta about 6.50pm when he stopped at a set of traffic lights.

While stopped at the lights, a white Toyota Kluger pulled up next to him and a man got out of the car.

The man walked over to the Jetta, opened the driver's door and demanded the driver hand over his belongings.

The man then punched the driver a number of times in the head and body, and dragged him out of the car.

Once on the ground, the driver told police he saw another passenger of the Kluger pointing a gun at him.

The man drove off in the Jetta and travelled west on Beach Road, with the Kluger following closely behind.

Both cars are still missing, and police have asked people keep an eye out for a black 2011  Volkswagen Jetta with the registration 1GFA299, and a white 2017 Toyota Kluger with the registration 1GJC559.

Anyone who sees either vehicle has been asked to contact police on 131 444, and anyone with further information has been asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make a report online.
