At approximately 8:15 p.m., Police responded to a call of a carjacking at Woodside Place near Arlington Avenue. A food delivery driver parked in the area was approached by a male who demanded his belongings, including his car keys, at gunpoint. A second suspect entered the victim’s vehicle, a gray, 4-door, 2019 Toyota Camry, along with the gunman. Two other suspects stood behind the victim’s vehicle during the incident. The victim’s cash of between $500.00 and $600.00 was also stolen, along with his cell phone and the ordered food. The suspects fled in the victim’s vehicle, heading East on Arlington Avenue from Woodside Place.
