This is security cam footage from Venezuela, of all places. Carjacker has the initiative initially, intended victim responds with violence of force. Intended victim is apparently locking up his business. Bad guy makes his appearance approximately 33 seconds into the video with weapon drawn. Results are apparently terminal, so if you are squeamish, don't watch it. A possible accomplice also deterred?
Unfortunately, statistics relating specifically to carjackings in the US are hard to come by because they are reported differently across the nation. The closest thing to solid numbers was compiled from 1992 - 1996 by the the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS). It indicated that there were about 49,000 carjackings/attempted carjackings each year. Bureau of Justice Statistics indicate that, as of 2003, there were approximately 1.3 carjackings per 10,000 persons nationwide (http://www.bjs.gov/index.cfm?ty=pbdetail&iid=476). if this is anywhere near correct, then carjacking is a prevalent crime.
