Jackson police Chief Joseph Wade says investigators have identified two people of interest in connection with a carjacking that was recorded by a Ring doorbell camera.
The video from Friday shows two people creeping up and firing shots at a family as they were saying their goodbyes in the driveway of their West Jackson home.
"I threw my hands up like, 'Hey, hey, hey,' and he just pulled me down," Heather Allen said.
Allen and one of her sons were outside the car, but inside were her oldest son, daughter and two grandchildren.
"They kept hollering, 'Give me the keys, give me the keys.' My daughter was like, 'My babies, my babies are in the car,'" Allen said.
One of the suspects is seen on video pulling Allen's daughter out of the car.
"He jumps in the driver's seat, I'm standing on the outside looking in, and he points a gun at my oldest boy's face," Allen said.
Her son made it out, and that's when Allen braved it to grab her grandchildren from the backseat. The whole time, one of the suspects was still yelling for the keys. When they couldn't figure out how to take that first car, Allen threw her keys on the ground, and the suspects took off in Allen's car, which was parked on the lawn.

Brazen.
According to the article, the car was found two blocks away. All that to go two blocks? This is crazy.

I didn’t know any whites left in west Jax
I was just there
and they wonder why.......
I used to be the postmaster of Jackson.
I’ve lived in Florida most of my long life, and don’t know where Jackson is.
Was the perp’s description, “a man dressed in dark clothing”?
It’s about 150 miles due north of another dark place called New Orleans
