The two incidents took place on Monday morning.
Gardaí are appealing for witnesses after two attempted hijackings and alleged assaults in Offaly.

He later exited the vehicle and fled the scene, with the driver, a man in his 20's reportedly sustaining injuries.
In a separate incident shortly afterwards, a man in his 20s entered another occupied car near a filling station at 6.45am.
He exited the vehicle and was arrested at the scene.
The driver of this car, a woman in her 40’s received medical assessment for injuries believed to be non-life-threatening at the time.
Gardaí are urging anyone who may have witnessed the incidents or who has relevant camera footage to contact Tullamore Garda Station.
