A man suspected of carjacking on the 1100 block of Cherry Avenue in San Bruno Tuesday night was arrested a day later in Oakland, according to police.
At about 6 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 22, a man trying to sell a car over the internet met with a man who requested to see it. He met with the man near his home accompanied by a female accomplice. After looking at the car for a short time, the female distracted him as the man got in the driver’s seat with the keys. The owner tried to intervene but the man pointed a handgun at him. The suspects fled the area in the vehicle, according to police.
At about 6 p.m. Oct. 23, an employee of the Oakland Housing Authority Police Department located the stolen vehicle in Oakland where they encountered the car occupied with two people inside. The male suspect, later identified as Isaiah Rohan Ireland Jr., 18, fled on foot. Officers gave chase and Ireland was taken into custody a short time later. Ireland was positively identified by the victim. Ireland’s female passenger was determined not to be the same as who was in the car. The female suspect is described as African American, approximately 5 feet 6 inches and 130 pounds. She has short braided hair close to her scalp and had tattoos on both arms, according to police.
