A man received some road rash after he grabbed onto a car that was fleeing from theft Saturday.

Police said two women were trying to steal a credit card from a man at an Arco gas pump at Sahara Avenue and Valley View Boulevard. The suspects then fled into their own car and the victim grabbed onto the car while they drove off.

The man fell off the vehicle and suffered road rash but was not transported to the hospital.

The women face charges of larceny from a person.
