According to Pennsauken police, the thief got out of another car and pushed a man to the ground before driving away in his car.

The victim suffered minor injuries.

The other carjacking happened at the Wawa on Route 70 on Jan. 7 while a woman filling her tires, cops said.

The woman was not pushed during the carjacking but was injured as the suspect drove away in her vehicle, police said.

Both stolen vehicles were later found in Camden officials said.

There have been no arrests made in either incident and an investigation remains ongoing.

Three other carjackings also took place in the same New Jersey town in December, police said.
