FINANCIAL DISTRICT — A Queens woman was carjacked on Broad Street earlier this month by a man threatening to have a weapon, police said.

The 41-year-old victim was sitting in her black 2009 Saturn in front of 125 Broad St. about 11:40 p.m. on Sept. 18 when a man approached her and said, "Get out. This is my car," according to police.

The man then put his hands in his pocket, indicating that he had a weapon. The woman got out of her car and ran across the street. She said she saw another man join the first one and they both fled the scene in her car.

Police are seeking two men, described as black, and both 5-feet-11 inches tall. One is described as 190 pounds and the other 195 pounds.
