A woman has been left shaken after she was allegedly hurled from her car by machete-wielding teen thugs in a terrifying carjacking in Melbourne’s west.

The mum was parked outside a friend’s home in Williams Landing about 3pm on Thursday when three teenagers allegedly approached her Lexus with a machete.

Shocking CCTV footage of the alleged attack shows the trio, who were dressed in all black, opening the doors of the car and climbing inside as the woman is heard screaming “no, no … give me my bag”.

The footage shows the alleged carjackers then taking off in her Lexus, leaving the woman clutching her bag in the middle of the street.

The woman later described her terror, saying she thought she was going to die.

“He had such a big machete. And he said I am going to kill you,” she told 3AW.

“I was literally thinking either I am going to get killed or I’m g`oing to get raped.”

Hours later the car was discovered by police at Watergardens Shopping Centre.

In a statement released on Saturday, Victoria Police said the victim was not physically injured and reported the incident to police.

“The three teenagers were arrested with the vehicle in Taylors Lakes on 30 May at 6.30pm,” he said.

“The two 15-year-olds and 17-year-old from Melton have been charged with aggravated carjacking.

“All three have been remanded to appear at a children’s court at a later date.”
