Would-Be Carjackers Hit Pregnant Woman In Stomach

BROOKLYN PARK, Md. (AP) ―

Anne Arundel County police say a man punched a pregnant woman in the stomach during an attempted carjacking.

Police received reports of an armed man in the 300-block of Arden Road about 4 a.m. Tuesday where three men were attempting to steal a car from two men and a pregnant woman.

Police say the men and woman were leaving their car when Rashad Knight of Glen Burnie, Rashard Watkins of Baltimore and Travis Johnson of Baltimore approached. Watkins and Johnson are 17 but are charged as adults and Knight is 18.

Police don't say which man punched the woman or what her condition is. When the woman said the car had Lo-Jack, the men ran.

Officers found them near another stolen car and captured them after a foot chase. All three are charged with assault and robbery.
