Police arrested two women at gunpoint on Thursday morning in connection with a stolen car.
Authorities received a call from a woman saying her father had been taken by two women to retrieve his stolen car in Linda Vista. The daughter saw the car they were riding in with her father, then wrote down the license plate and called 911.
The daughter and police eventually tracked the car down to Fashion Valley, where police found out the car they were driving was stolen. The man was able to tell his daughter he was in the Fashion Valley parking lot and officers were able to stop the women at gunpoint in the parking lot.
Police said the man had loaned the women his Lexus, but said they would not return it until he paid them more money.
The whereabouts of the Lexus are unknown and the circumstances preceding the incident is unclear.
The women are now in custody, with one facing an auto theft charge.
