“Then I see a guy with a covered face, approach me, and he tells me to get out of my car and get on the ground!” she wrote.

The second man, who the woman said had a rope in his hand, then told her to look in her rear view mirror.

“I look over my left shoulder, and at the back of the car there is a man all dressed in black, also with his face covered. He is holding what looks like an assault rifle.” Tweet This

She then grabbed the rope and the man’s radio that he had dropped and threw them into her car. At one point, she says she punched the man in the face before finally taking off in the vehicle.

The photos, which have also been deleted from social media, show men with ski masks surrounding her vehicle. One of them appears to be holding a firearm.
