A woman told officers that she had parked her car inside a parking garage located at 8700 Cameron Street. She got out of her car and was quickly approached by the two suspects. One suspect demanded her vehicle keys and assaulted the victim. 

Police say during the attempted carjacking, another vehicle pulled into the parking garage and approached the area where the victim had parked. After seeing the second vehicle, the suspects fled the area on foot without stealing any of her property.
