3 teens suspected in 1 or more carjackings in Omaha

crimeOMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Authorities have arrested three teenagers suspected of one or more carjackings in Omaha.

The three were arrested Thursday morning after they ran from a vehicle that had been reported stolen at gunpoint in northwest Omaha. The car owner told police that a man demanded the keys to her car Wednesday afternoon and then struck her in the face with a firearm. He took her keys and drove off in her car.

The three teens — two are 14 and the other is 16 — are being investigated for possible connections to two more carjackings, a purse theft and a failed carjacking.
