NEW YORK — Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg's 2001 Lexus sedan was carjacked in a New Jersey suburb Wednesday morning by two thieves who took the vehicle from a personal employee on an errand for the mayor.
The vehicle was recovered later Wednesday. Police said the suspects were at large.
According to Capt. Frank Lomia of the Hackensack, N.J., Police Department, a young woman approached the driver, Gladimir Bosnjak, 62, and asked him for money. Bosnjak refused and began to roll up his window. As he did, a man entered through the front passenger door and pushed Bosnjak out of the car after a struggle. The young woman then got into the Lexus, and the pair drove off.
