Falls Township and New Jersey authorities are searching for three suspects they say are responsible for two alleged carjackings.
Officials say two men and a woman are the suspects they are looking for the violent attacks that occurred in the early morning hours Thursday.
The suspects are described by police as:
- Black Female, wearing a black ski mask, red and black checkered pants, black jacket
- Black Male, wearing light-colored blue jeans, light gray hooded sweatshirt, black ski mask, black shoulder bag
- White Male, wearing black pants, black top, and black medical mask
Falls Township Police were dispatched at approximately 3:55 a.m. to the Wawa, West Trenton Avenue, Morrisville, to investigate the report of a carjacking which just occurred, said Lieutenant Christopher Clark.
A 64-year-old female resident of Trenton, NJ, was accosted by the three individuals after leaving the store and returning to her gray 2017 Honda Civic with NJ registration ZBU 34C, police said.
During the incident, Lt. Clark said, they forcibly removed her from the vehicle and struck her several times in the face. The victim declined medical treatment for her injuries.
The stolen vehicle was last observed traveling along West Trenton Avenue toward Trenton, NJ, said police.
A follow-up investigation determined that minutes prior to the incident, the three suspects arrived at the Wawa in a white 2009 Acura TSX with the NJ registration L81 UBC. The Acura was stolen during a strong-arm carjacking and occurred approximately 45 minutes earlier in Trenton, NJ, Lt. Clark said.
Following the Falls Township carjacking, police said the two male suspects fled in the victim’s vehicle while the female suspect fled in the stolen Acura.
