Bentley driver fights off trio of would-be carjackers outside NJ supermarket in dramatic video

A Bentley driver fought off a trio of young bandits who tried to forcibly remove him from his pricey ride during a carjacking in New Jersey on Friday — and it wasn’t the first time carjackers targeted the luxury car enthusiast.

The attempted theft happened in the parking lot of an Edison grocery store owned by the victim’s family and was captured in dramatic surveillance footage obtained by ABC 7.

The video shows three masked men — believed to be as young as teenagers — run up to the orange Bentley Bentayga as the driver opens his door.

The thieves pummel him and try to pry him out of the vehicle until one grabs him by the leg and drags him out, the clip shows.

Give these punks a taste of their own medicine. Isn't Edison NJ rich?

I don’t bother to watch anymore. The fact that it’s happening suggests that it’s accepted.

We need a National Stand Your Ground law, especially for merchants and their employees.

I used to work in Edison. It’s a shitshow, mostly Indian and other diverse cultures. Lots of money in some areas but bordering towns have even more garbage people.

--- "...often committed by teenage boys who are employed by organized gangs to steal high-end cars because they face less severe repercussions as minors...."

Democrat policies. Catch and release, or don't catch at all. But god forbid if a "victim" shoots one of these "teenage boys" in self-defense.

That car owner is lucky to be alive. The scum who attacked him would kill as easily as some people say “hello”.

My advice to the car owner:

1. Don’t tempt fate. Drive to work in a junker.
2. Vote Republican.
3. Vote Republican (bears repeating).

This reminds me of the story about the woman that had her $30k ring stolen in a hotel......sometimes it just not wise to flash expensive things in the wrong place.

I saw one of those Bentley SUVs at my local Walmart a while back......my first thought was why drive something so expensive to a place like that?

Immigrants from India have the lowest crime rates. You will not see many in prison population. And Indian origin Americans have highest average incomex in USA. You can Google this or check on Wikipedia.

If I was worth $10 billion I’d never drive anything so pretentious. And one of the many reasons I wouldn’t is because of just that kind of situation...theft by young punks who aren’t afraid to kill.

“Immigrants from India have the lowest crime rates. You will not see many in prison population”

I never really thought about it, but in the 5 years I spent in my church’s prison ministry in at least 6 different facilities I never saw one man of Indian decent.

And pretty much all the ones I’ve met are white collar professionals.

A lot of family on my mother’s side were very wealthy. They dressed based on whatever was on sale at the K-Mart blue light specials. They drove beater cars. They lived in very nice, upper middle-class homes.

I’m in an antique car club. It’s not unusual for some of the members to have ten to thirty cars. They either currently own operating businesses or they’re retired. From the way they dress and what they daily drive you’d be hard pressed to separate them from the average Joe walking through Walmart. (Except for zero visible tattoos.)

The people who show off their wealth, probably have the swag, but it’s mortgaged to the hilt.

It is just a dressed up Audi Q7, which is a dressed up VW Atlas.

The top of the line Atlas, the SEL Premium R-Line, goes for $56K loaded.

A local doctor's wife where I live drove a new Bentley Continental convertible in what I would call a pick-up/SUV town (second wife...young, beautiful). I thought, "What's wrong with this picture?"

The doctor is now in prison for selling over-the-counter drugs in great quantities.

A lot fewer.

Insurance companies ought to price coverage accordingly.
