Montgomery County Police Seek Public Help Identifying Bethesda Rideshare Carjacking Suspects

The Montgomery County Police Department is seeking public assistance in identifying three suspects involved in an attempted strong-arm carjacking of a rideshare driver on May 24 in Bethesda. The female driver picked up two women and one man, driving them to the Medical Center Metro Station, where the male suspect began punching her and demanding she exit the vehicle. Fearing for her life, the victim accelerated and made sharp turns, causing the male suspect to jump out of the moving car, after which she called 9-1-1 from a nearby location. Surveillance footage from the area has been reviewed, and photos of the suspects have been released to the public. Authorities encourage anyone with information to submit anonymous tips through Crime Solvers of Montgomery County or by calling 1-866-411-TIPS. The investigation remains ongoing as the suspects are still at large.
