Senior staff in California Rep. Sara Jacobs’ office was the victim of a popular armed carjacking in Washington, D.C. Friday afternoon, according to a report from the Metropolitan Police Department.
Subway police announced Sunday that they were arrested in two armed carjacks in the Harris Teeter parking lot near the Naval Court in Washington on Friday afternoon.
In addition to the victim’s personal belongings, the senior staff government-issued iPhone, MacBook, ID and Capitol parking pass were identified as missing in police reports obtained by Fox News Digital. Jacobs' office did not comment, but confirmed that the device was wiped immediately.
According to Metro police, on Friday, around 12:08 p.m., the suspect approached the victim when he left the car and asked the victim for the car keys. Police said one of the suspects waved a pistol when the staff refused and obtained the keys before the suspect fled the victim's vehicle.
