PHILADELPHIA, Pa. — Early Tuesday morning, a male victim was carjacked at gunpoint on the 6700 block of Woodland Avenue in Southwest Philadelphia. The incident occurred at approximately 5:12 a.m. on September 3, 2024, when three armed males approached the victim and demanded he exit his vehicle, a champagne-colored 2017 Nissan Sentra.
After the carjacking, the vehicle was last seen making a right turn onto 68th and Woodland Avenue. Officers from the 12th District soon spotted the stolen vehicle near Cobbs Creek Parkway and Cedar Avenue, leading to a high-speed pursuit.
The chase ended when the stolen vehicle crashed into a vacant property on the 300 block of North Horton Street. The three suspects fled the scene on foot and remain at large. No arrests have been made at this time.
The suspects are described as young Black males, all wearing black hooded sweatshirts and black pants. Although no injuries were reported, there may be structural damage to the property where the crash occurred.
The investigation is ongoing, and authorities are urging anyone with information to contact the Philadelphia Police Department.
