2 Carjacked At Gunpoint In Jewel-Osco Parking Lot

ORLAND PARK, IL — Two people sitting in a car in a Jewel-Osco parking lot shortly after midnight Tuesday were robbed and carjacked by two armed and masked men who remain on the run, police in Orland Park said.

Orland Park police said the two victims were in "a desolated area" of the parking lot of a store at 17930 Wolf Road around 12:14 a.m. Tuesday when another car pulled up behind them. The two people in the other car had their faces covered and were armed with handguns, police said; they opened the doors of the victims' car and ordered them out.

The two men, who police say are both black and in their late teens or early 20s, stole a wallet and purse from the victims before fleeing in their car, police said.

One of the suspects was described as 5 feet, 8 inches tall with a thin build. He was wearing all black, including a black hoodie and mask covering the lower half of his face, and red Nike Air Jordan shoes. The other was described as 6 feet tall with a thin build. He was wearing skinny jeans and a gray hooded sweatshirt, with a black mask covering his face and white/cream Nike Huarache shoes.

Anyone with information that could help police investigate this incident is asked to contact Orland Park police Cmdr. Eric Rossi at 708-364-8113 or erossi@orlandpark.org.
