On August 24, detectives secured an arrest warrant, charging him with armed carjacking, firearm use in a violent felony, first-degree assault, second-degree assault, reckless endangerment, illegal possession of a firearm, theft, and unlawful taking of a motor vehicle.
Detectives apprehended Oyegbami on August 31 as he left his residence in Prince George’s County. Oyegbami attempted to evade police but was taken into custody after a brief foot chase.
A subsequent search warrant executed at Oyegbami’s residence led to the recovery of a loaded Glock 30 and other items linking him to the crime.
