Seeking carjackers who set a stolen car alight

The Team Reporter from Hamilton Press

They dragged a woman out of her car, stole it, and set it alight - and police are still looking for them.
A man and woman are being sought in connection with the May 29 carjacking in Dominion Road, Nawton.
The woman - described as a skinny, fair-skinned Māori around 19 or 20 - stepped into the road and signalled that she wanted to talk to the female driver.

Less than an hour later, they set it alight on Insoll Avenue.
