Prince George's Man Sentenced To 7.5 Years In Prison For Carjacking, Attempted Robbery

PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, MD — A 23-year-old Fort Washington man has been sentenced to a 7.5-year prison term for carjacking and other charges stemming from a pair of crimes that occurred over a three-day period.

Adrian Proctor pleaded guilty in October 2021 in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia to carjacking, attempted robbery and a felon-in-possession firearms offense. The plea, which was contingent upon the court’s approval, called for an agreed upon 7.5-year prison term. After he's completed his prison term, Proctor will be placed on three years of supervised release.

According to the evidence presented, on June 19, 2020, at approximately 6:45 a.m., Proctor was in a car that rammed into an Audi in the 1400 block of P Street NW. Both the victim and Proctor got out of their vehicles and Proctor, who was armed with a firearm, demanded the victim’s car keys. He then got into the victim’s car and too, off westbound on P Street NW.

In a second incident three days later at approximately 8:40 p.m., Proctor was in a vehicle that double-parked next to a Chevrolet Camaro in the 2900 block of V Street NE. The victim in the Camaro was attempting to take a nap. Proctor reached inside, unlocked the door and attempted to pull the victim out of the driver’s seat. The victim complained and screamed to people nearby to call the police. The victim took the key out of the ignition and ran. Proctor unsuccessfully attempted to start the vehicle with another key that was left inside. He then took off with a backpack and portable speaker that he took from the car, but he was arrested afterward by the Metropolitan Police Department and has been in custody since then.
