A Brownsville woman reported she was carjacked last week when she drove into Matamoros, a police report said.

The 23-year-old woman said two men approached her in Matamoros and asked her if she was American.

When she replied that she is a U.S. citizen, they threatened her with a gun and ordered her out of the vehicle.

The men fled the scene in the car, and she reported the incident to the Mexican police and Brownsville police.

She reported that her purse, which contained her birth certificate, was in the vehicle.
