FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (WSVN) -- Two women accused of being behind a carjacking are now parked behind bars.

Shan-Twanice Chisem and Arshan-Tayvia Chinn appeared in court Thursday. They face a long list of charges, from armed robbery to grand theft. Both were denied bond.

Police said the duo carjacked a woman at Coral Square Mall in Coral Springs in September. They said, one of the suspects pointed a gun at the victim before taking off in her car.

Police said the women were back at the mall Sunday, when they robbed another woman, striking her over the head with a gun, then stealing her purse.
