Police are asking for the public’s assistance identifying a woman who they say attempted to carjack a vehicle out of Belleville Friday.
According to police, on September 29th at approximately 4:32 p.m., officers responded to a report of an attempted carjacking on Washington Avenue.
The woman in the photo allegedly jumped into the drivers seat of a car that was left running while a 14-year-old girl sat in the passenger seat.
The juvenile victim immediately grabbed the keys from the ignition but a struggle ensued as the suspect attempted to recover keys in an attempt to steal the car.
The juvenile victim sustained minor scratches, according to police.
Anyone with information on her whereabouts or information on the incident is asked to contact police at (973) 450-3361.
