A woman was nearly hit by a truck during a smash-and-grab at a gas station on Detroit's west side.

The BP gas station, located on Livernois near Fenkel, was still open during the incident.

After the woman was nearly hit by the stolen pickup truck, the suspects then pulled a gun on her and reportedly threatened her after she came face-to-face with them.

The suspects reportedly rammed the door repeatedly to get inside. 

The owner said he's not giving up – he said he's seen Detroit in the bad times and the good, and he wants to be a part of this city moving forward.
