WASHINGTON, D.C. – It was a somber end for two teen joyriders, one in a stolen car, another in a car she carjacked yesterday crashed into a car stolen last week out of Maryland .
Metropolitan Police are investigating a fatal traffic accident that resulted in the death of a 16-year-old girl and the arrest of a another 15-year-old girl.
The investigation into the bizarre crash revealed that early yesterday morning, at around 1:47 a.m., the 16-year-old, identified as Kendra Outlaw, was driving a Honda Pilot at excessive speed. She lost control of the vehicle at the traffic circle at Brentwood Road and Bryant Street, Northeast. The car hit a utility pole, overturned, struck another car, and came to a halt. Outlaw was pronounced dead at the scene.
A Toyota Camry, also speeding, failed to navigate the same traffic circle and crashed into a retaining wall. Three occupants abandoned the Camry; two fled, while a 15-year-old female stayed and was arrested for Unauthorized Use of a Vehicle.
Both the Honda Pilot and Toyota Camry had been stolen; the Honda was carjacked yesterday at the 3700 block of Southern Avenue, Southeast, and the Toyota was taken last Wednesday in Prince George’s County, Maryland.
Anyone with information is asked to call police at (202) 727-9099 or text tips to 50411.
