Man shot attempting to escape carjacker in Southeast DC

A man is in the hospital after he was shot following a carjacking in Southeast D.C. early Saturday morning.

It happened a little after 1 a.m. when police say the man was carjacked. The carjacker then drove him from Prince George’s County through the District attempting to get the victim to withdraw money from ATMs.

The passenger is expected to survive. Police are looking for a dark-colored Nissan Rogue in connection with the crimes.

Police haven’t arrested anyone in connection with the shooting.

Here’s a map of the area where the man was shot.
