The Atlantic City Police Department arrested six juvenile males and charged them with carjacking and other related offenses following two separate incidents.
On November 29, the first carjacking ocurred. During the investigation, two juveniles were reported as runaways by their family. Detectives determined that these two juveniles were suspects in the carjacking. They were both later located and arrested. As the investigation continued, three additional suspects were arrested.
On December 16, two of the suspects involved in the Raleigh Avenue incident were arrested following a carjacking at Ocean Casino Resort. The suspects stole the vehicle and fled the parking garage.
Shortly after, patrol officers located the vehicle and the driver fled from officers leading them on a pursuit that left Atlantic City. The pursuit was called off after becoming an increased risk to the public. At 12:25 AM, the stolen vehicle was located in the area of the 700 block of Arctic Avenue and officers located three males in the area. They were identified as the suspects and arrested.
