A man allegedly hijacked a woman's car at gunpoint in Ballyfermot.
The Dublin suburb made national headlines recently when joyriders rammed a garda car while two female gardai were inside it. Shortly after 3pm today, a man is approached a woman while she was getting into her car on Park West Road and threatened her with a "suspected" black handgun.
The woman got out of her silver C-Class Mercedes Benz 161-D and the man drove off towards Cloverhill Road. Gardai are appealing for witnesses to the alleged incident.
