A man is fleeing after he allegedly grabbed a gun from two women before stealing the Audi where they had gotten into a driveway on a residential street on the Costa Daurada.
CCTV footage shows the man running towards the car parked at a Quayside Drive home in Helenvale around 6:02 a.m. yesterday with what appears to be a handgun.
He can then be seen aiming his weapon at a woman approaching the driver’s seat, making her jump out of the car, before being heard to say, “Give me your keys.”

A woman throws him the keys, which he picks up from the ground before taking the time to take out his bag with the belongings from the driver’s seat and place it on the road.
He then flees in the 2020 Audi Q2 van, which has the license plate number 318BB2, which was captured with another camera driving towards River Links Boulevard East.
It appeared to be accompanied by a white Toyota Camry, which police say was also stolen and carrying the fake 948XFN license plates.
Police have released the images in the hope that someone will identify the man or see the cars and contact the police.
