A 37-year-old man is due to appear before Belfast Magistrates Court this morning following a hijacking at a garage forecourt in west Belfast.
It happened when a young couple pulled into a filling station on Finaghy Road North on Saturday evening around 7.30pm.
The Vauxhall Corsa was taken when the driver got out to get food.
A young woman managed to get out of the vehicle as it was driven away - it later crashed on Whiterock Close.
A PSNI spokesperson said: "Detectives investigating a hijacking incident on Finaghy Road North in west Belfast on Saturday, 13th June, have charged a 37-year-old man with several offences.
"The man has been charged to appear before Belfast Magistrates' Court today with offences, including hijacking and aggravated vehicle taking causing damage to the vehicle.
