ATLANTA — Atlanta police are looking for a man who, they say, carjacked a woman after pointing a gun at her 5-year-old daughter.
Authorities told Channel 2 Action News the girl was visiting her sister at an apartment on Moury Avenue Sunday afternoon.
At first, the mother thought her little girl was inside the car so she ran after it while calling the cops, according to police. Minutes later, police say she realized the girl had actually jumped out of the vehicle the moment the man carjacked the vehicle.
In surveillance video obtained only by Channel 2, a woman is seen frantically calling the police to report the carjacking.
Police are now on the hunt for the man who left the mother and her daughter terrified.
