Witnesses say the woman tried holding onto the vehicle, resulting in her being dragged.

While we don't know her current condition, the woman was said to be unconscious upon arrival to the hospital.

This carjacking happened at the very same Costco where a similar incident almost took place on Monday evening. A Facebook video recorded on dashcam captured an SUV pulling up next to an individual who is seen pumping gas.

As a passenger from the other SUV attempts to get into the driver's side door, the vehicle's owner is able to intervene and scare them off.
