The incident occurred in Lower Bennett Street.
Detectives in Derry are appealing for witnesses and dashcam footage following an attempted hijacking on Lower Bennett Street on Saturday, 18th February.
Detective Sergeant Hanbidge said: “Police received a report that the driver of a black Volkswagen Bora had been flagged down by a man at approximately 9.55pm on Saturday night.
"The man got in the car and it was then that he demanded the driver out of his vehicle and tried to take the keys before leaving the scene.
“A 16-year-old male has since been arrested on suspicion of attempted hijacking. He remains in custody at this time.
“Our enquiries are continuing and we are appealing to anyone who was in the area at the time or may have captured dashcam footage which can assist our investigation to contact 101 quoting reference number 1935 18/02/23.”
