Despite being outnumbered, the LG delivery driver bravely defended himself and managed to repel the attackers.

Eyewitnesses reported that the culprits hurled racial insults at the driver before demanding the keys to his truck.

As they tried to flee he was joined by a co-worker and, armed with a spirit level, exacted his revenge as one man bizarrely attempted to retrieve a guitar from a getaway car.

As the fight fizzled out the brave delivery driver delivered one last flurry of blows.

Police said there were no serious injuries in the fight and the two alleged carjackers fled in a red Subaru southbound on the Eastlink.
