Wild moment Uber Eats driver tries to fight off teens from allegedly stealing his car after stranger jumped into vehicle seconds after he left it to drop off an order

Horrifying footage has captured the moment three teenagers stole a car moments after an Uber Eats driver left the vehicle to drop off an order. 

The shocking incident unfolded outside a home on Romsey Place at Langwarrin, in Melbourne's south-east, at 1.45pm on Thursday. 

Three 17-year-old boys from Reservoir, Oakleigh and Langwarrin were charged with aggravated home invasion and aggravated carjacking following the incident. 

CCTV footage from a neighbouring property showed the Uber Eats driver park his Toyota Camry outside a house before he stepped out to drop off an order. 

The 33-year-old, who had left the driver's side door open, rushed back moments later when he spotted a teen jumping into the car. 

The alleged thief, who was wearing a grey hoodie, was seen in the footage reversing the vehicle in a bid to drive off.

The teenager kicked the man several times before his friend, who was wearing dark activewear, emerged from an allegedly stolen ute nearby.

He then punched the Uber Eats driver from behind and knocked him to the ground. 

The man got up and tried again to stop the teenager, but was dragged for several metres as he hung onto the car door.

He was rushed to hospital with serious injuries including several cuts and grazes. 

Damian, who ordered the food for lunch, immediately called the cops and said the incident was horrifying. 

'You could see the victim was reaching into the window to try and get the bloke out,' he told the Herald Sun. 

'We then picked him up around the corner and he had a knife held to him.' 

The teenagers then dumped the car in Hughesdale before they allegedly broke into the home of an elderly couple. 

Spiros Zois, 82, and his wife Angela, 74, were listening to the radio when the teenagers barged in and demanded the pair hand over their car keys. 

Mr Zois was pushed to the ground and suffered an injured back before the trio left empty-handed.

'He pushed me down on the floor and after they ran inside the bedrooms everywhere [to] look for the keys to the car,' Mr Zois told 7News. 

The group were arrested by police a short time later. 

Two boys fronted a children's court on Friday while the third was in hospital under police guard. 

The alleged thieves are accused of stealing a ute, a FWD and the Camry. 

Two of the boys allegedly stole a knife and a knife sharpener from a hardware store in Frankston on the same day. 

The trio are accused of committing 39 offences in total, including assault, stealing from cars and stealing from victims according to a court fact sheet.

The teenagers will all front court again on August 1.
