Three armed men on Tuesday evening hijacked a car at gunpoint in Sujanpur District of Pathankot near the Jammu and Kashmir Border.

It is reported that the car is a Ford Fiesta Model with number PB 06 S 8982. The police have reached the spot and have started the investigation.

The identity of the three men has yet not been ascertained.

The incident assumes importance as the similar incident had taken place before the terror attack at the Pathankot air base on January 6 when terrorists had hijacked a car belonging to a Gurdaspur Police official.
