The dash cam, scourge of careless car wash employees and allegedly crooked cops everywhere, has found its next victim in a Bushwick carjacking that was captured on video. As ABC 7 puts it, this is a carjacking LIKE YOU'VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE! Never. Before. See it here, see it now, see it real.

ABC 7 reported on this carjacking video to end all carjacking videos, captured on Monday on a dash cam in a car belonging to one Shaya Jungeris. Jungeris told the station he left the car running (!) at Somers and Rockaway Avenues in Bushwick and...surprise, two men stole it! Though they did abandon it, more or less intact, after a brief joyride:

Though YouTube offers up a bevy of exciting dash cam carjacking videos, the station points out that this one has a particularly unique bent—"It's a carjacking like you have never seen before" because it's taken from the dash of the car being stolen, not from a pursuing police cruiser.

It does not appear any arrests have been made as of yet. Jungeris has since retrieved his car. Nothing will ever top this carjacking video.
