Capitol Cops arrest ‘armed and dangerous’ teen serial carjackers who tried hiding in restaurant freezer
On the afternoon of January 24, the United States Capitol Police (USCP) reported that their officers arrested two armed, teenaged serial carjacker suspects who hid in an outdoor restaurant freezer after being chased by the cops. Around 11:45 a.m., an officer along the 100 block of E Street, NW, spotted a white BMW sedan that was believed to be tied to multiple armed carjackings across a neighboring county.
The occupants inside the vehicle were considered to be armed and dangerous. The officers attempted to make a traffic stop, but the driver sped off, according to MSN. The driver clipped a USCP van along First Street, then crashed into a USCP SUV along the 300 block of Third Street, SE.
The driver and passenger got out of the car, ran, and then tried to hide in an outdoor freezer behind a restaurant along Pennsylvania Avenue, SE, where they were eventually captured and taken into custody by USCP officers.
Police retrieved one gun and a high-capacity magazine.
The suspects were identified as 18-year-old Cedae Hardy and 18-year-old Landrell Jordan.
A slew of charges to be brought against the two teen carjackers in the freezer include:
- Unauthorized Use of a Vehicle,
- Carrying a Pistol without a License,
- Felony Fleeing,
- Reckless Driving,
- Assault with a Deadly Weapon (Auto X2),
- Large Capacity Feeding Device,
- Destruction of Property,
- Unregistered Ammunition, and
- Unregistered Firearm.
