AACO Police Looking For Taxi Carjacking Suspects

GLEN BURNIE, Md. (WJZ) --- Anne Arundel County police are asking for the public's help in finding two men suspected of armed carjacking a taxi cab.

On Tuesday, Dec. 16, a 52-year-old woman taxi cab driver told police she responded to the 900 block of Washburn Avenue in Brooklyn to pick up a fair around 8:45 p.m. Two men entered the car and told her to drive them to the area of McGowan Road and Beach Road.
