WOMAN had a gun pulled on her and was told she would be killed as thieves carjacked her Maserati in broad daylight

Concerns that gun crime in Sydney is on the rise: "WOMAN had a gun pulled on her and was told she would be killed as thieves carjacked her Maserati in broad daylight yesterday, just hours after police sought to allay concerns about gun crime being rife in Sydney.

Two men in a red Holden swerved in front of the 35-year-old mother's car at 1.30pm after she turned off the City West Link at Haberfield, forcing her to stop.

One man armed with a gun then walked up to her silver 2009 Maserati Quattroporte, which cost $300,000, and told her: ''Get out or I will kill you.''"
