Queensland Police are appealing for information after a woman was assaulted and had her vehicle stolen at Ashmore on the Gold Coast overnight.
Initial investigations indicate around 4am, the 50-year-old Pacific Pines woman was driving her 2022 Toyota Corolla at the intersection of Southport Nerang Road and Ashmore Road before a separate white Toyota Corolla struck the back of her vehicle.
The white Corolla overtook the woman's vehicle, and both continued for a period of time before the white Corolla stopped on Ainsley Avenue.
The five occupants of the white Corolla have then left their vehicle before pulling the woman out of her vehicle, where she was assaulted.
The group then left the scene in the woman's vehicle, leaving their vehicle behind.
The 50-year-old woman sustained minor injuries and was taken to Gold Coast University Hospital in a stable condition.
The woman's Toyota Corolla (pictured) is described as white in colour, with a black top, black spoiler, black tyres, and features a black and white licence plate with Queensland registration 390EA8.
The other white Toyota Corolla, reportedly stolen from South Brisbane around 2am this morning, has been seized for forensic analysis.
Investigators are appealing for anyone with information about either vehicles or who may have CCTV of the area around the time of the incident to come forward.
Investigations are ongoing.
