Deputies are searching for a man who carjacked a woman early Wednesday outside a convenience store on Silver Star Road, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office said.
Authorities said the 23-year-old woman was inside a Circle-K at about 12:11 a.m. when she heard the engine rev on her car, which she left running.
The woman ran outside and got into the passenger seat as the carjacker drove away, deputies said.
