Luxury car stolen at gunpoint on millionaire’s row
RESIDENTS in one of Brisbane's most sought-after and gracious streets are in shock after an armed gunman stole a couple's Audi.
The man and woman were threatened with a long-arm weapon and had their car stolen outside their Laurel Ave, Chelmer, home this morning.
They pulled up in their carport about 7.15am when the 64-year-old female resident was approached by a man who opened the door and brandished the gun.
He demanded the car keys while also threatened the woman's terrified 67-year-old husband.
He handed over the keys and the gunman fled northbound on the street at high speed in their grey 2019 Audi RS4, a make which sells for $130,000 to $140,000.
The couple was not injured.
Laurel Ave has several times been voted Brisbane's best street.
It is graced by huge camphor laurels which form a unique green archway along the street, which fronts the Brisbane river.
Most homes are worth more than a million dollars and several grand, sprawling Queenslanders have changed hands for more than $3 million in recent years.

The gunman is described as wearing a dark coloured hoodie with a black bandana over his face.
Police are appealing for anyone who may see the vehicle, with Queensland registration 324ZDW, to immediately call triple-0.
