Adrianna told news reporter that she was pulling into the International Mall in Tampa, FL when an armed man jumped in her car. Unlucky for him, Ms. Adrianna was also carrying her own firearm in which she uses to smack the carjacker in the head and sent him running away.“I just leaned forward and punched him in the forehead with my gun. The man screamed like a girl and almost dropped his gun as he ran away.” she told ABC News.
