Robberies, Gold Coast
Gold Coast police are continuing to search for a man and a woman following several incidents involving drivers being threatened with a weapon on the M1 yesterday.
Around 3pm a silver Ford Falcon with no registration plates was being driven dangerously south on the M1 near Burleigh when it stopped suddenly in front of a vehicle.
A woman and a man armed with a sharp implement exited the Falcon before threatening drivers and attempting to steal two different vehicles.
After their unsuccessful attempts the pair continued south on the M1 before again confronting a driver of a vehicle near the Palm Beach exit.
During the incident the pair forced a 67-year-old woman out of her Mazda hatchback before taking off in the car.
The man and woman (depicted in the footage) and the stolen black Mazda CX-3 with New South Wales registration DSE-11Z remain outstanding and police are appealing for anyone with information of their whereabouts to come forward.
Investigators are also appealing for any witnesses of the incidents or anyone with additional dash cam footage to contact police.
