A woman has been left terrified after what appears to be an attempted car jacking in Gippsland.

Police say the 22 year old woman was at the traffic lights at the intersection of Princes Highway and Gray street Traralgon at about 4.45pm on Saturday

Two men approached her car and attempted to open the doors.

The victim has told police the man on the drivers side was armed with a large knife and when the two offenders realised the doors were locked, they fled.

Detectives have today released computer generated images of the suspects.

They say while they’re not sure what the intentions of the two men were. the victim should feel relieved the men couldn’t get into her car.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.
