Newark Public Safety Director Fritz G. Fragé requests the public’s help in identifying the below-pictured carjacking suspects and locating the carjacked vehicle in an incident that occurred on Tuesday, March 21, 2023.

At approximately 4 a.m., two Black males exited an older model black 4-door sedan with after market front and rear lights, approached the victim in the 500 block of South 11th Street, and took her vehicle at gunpoint. The carjacked vehicle, a blue 2020 Honda CRV, fled northbound on South 11th Street towards 16th Avenue along with the older model black sedan.

Detectives investigating this incident request the public’s help in quickly identifying these suspects and locating the carjacked vehicle. Suspect #1 is described as a black male, 5’7” tall with a thin build, and wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, and black face mask. Suspect #2 is described as a black male with a slim build, wearing a black bubble coat, and black sneakers.

Director Fragé urges anyone with information about the identity of these suspects or the location of this vehicle to call the Police Division’s 24-hour Crime Stopper tip line at 1-877-NWK-TIPS (1-877-695-8477). All anonymous Crime Stopper tips are kept confidential and could result in a reward.
