The 55-year-old victim told investigators that he was sitting in his pickup outside his home in the 7900 block of West 36th Street when two men approached about 10:45 p.m., according to a Little Rock Police Department report.

Both men had handguns, and one demanded the victim "give up" his keys, the report said. The victim told the men that the keys were in the ignition, police said, noting that the two assailants later got into the vehicle and drove east on 36th Street.

The stolen vehicle is a black 2008 Ford F-150 with Arkansas plate number USAJGRC.

The carjackers were described as black men between 18 and 20 years old who were each about 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighed about 160 pounds, police said.

No arrests had been made at the time of the report.
