The car was found in Melbourne’s Camberwell area before it was spotted dangerously driven through the city. The police are still searching for the suspects as two men were spotted fleeing and managed to evade.

Last year, former India cricketer Gautam Gambhir had experienced a similar robbery. Gambhir’s father Deepak’s SUV was stolen from outside their house in Central Delhi’s Rajendra Nagar area.
