The Metropolitan Police Department is earnestly seeking the public's assistance after an armed carjacking incident shook a Northeast neighborhood last Friday night. A statement on their official website details the occasion unfolding in the 1300 block of C Street. According to the Metropolitan Police Department , at around 10:33 PM, suspects, their numbers unspecified, approached a victim, with at least one of the aggressors drawing a handgun to enforce their demand for property. With the victim's belongings and vehicle keys in their possession, they then managed to flee the scene quickly.

The stolen vehicle is described as a 2015 Honda CR-V, bearing the District of Columbia tag EW2179. The MPD has released surveillance images of one suspect and the victim's vehicle to apprehend the involved parties rapidly. These images are hoped to assist in identifying the suspect, a crucial step in an ongoing investigation. The promise of a reward has met this quest for justice; the department is offering up to $10,000 for information that could lead to an arrest and subsequent conviction of the persons found responsible for this violent act.

Community members who believe they might recognize the suspect or have any information related to this crime are encouraged not to approach the individuals but to reach out to the MPD. The recommended course of action for anyone with potentially helpful knowledge is to call the police at (202) 727-9099. Alternatively, tips can be texted to the department's text tip line at 50411, maintaining the tipster's anonymity while potentially aiding in the case's resolution.
