PALMDALE – Two carjacking suspects were arrested after a short pursuit in Palmdale Monday.

Around 2:30 p.m., the two suspects allegedly carjacked a Lexus in the 3300 block of Fairfield Avenue, near Joshua Park, according to the Palmdale Sheriff’s Station watch commander, who said he believed the suspects used a firearm.

Deputies spotted the stolen vehicle and pursued it to the intersection of Division Street and Kimberly Lane, the watch commander said.

The high-speed pursuit lasted about 10 minutes and ended in a crash, according to a source at the scene. It was not immediately clear if anyone was injured.

The two suspects were taken into custody, according to the watch commander. The names and ages of the suspects were not released.

    Damn Scandinavian Teens. If only there was some government program to buy these young Scandinavian’s a car of their own, their own special EBT cards that work at local weed stores, then this would not have happened.

    Scandinavian Lives Matter!

    Get the new DA on the line, this is purely and simply the “Man” oppressing Scandinavians again, something must be done.

      Dude, it’s the holiday season. Give the racism a rest. You do realize the person who had six million people exterminated (the greatest crime against humanity) was not black. The folks that exterminated most of the native Americans weren’t black either. A carjacking pales by comparison.

      They most likely were going to drive the Lexus into a home garage to hide it from view, so they strip the Lexus for parts they were planning to sell on the Black Market, for a decent price.
