Man robbed of sneakers, Porsche in latest Tremont carjacking - cleveland.com
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Detectives are investigating another carjacking in the city's Tremont neighborhood, as police continue searching for men linked to other violent muggings in the popular west side community. This carjacking victim, a 22-year-old Euclid man, was sitting inside his 2004 Porsche Cayenne at West 5th Street and Miller Court about 11:45 p. m. Wednesday, waiting for a friend to come out of an apartment, according to a Cleveland police report. The men grabbed his sneakers, jumped into his Porsche and sped off toward Jefferson Avenue, the report said. Police found the Porsche later that night abandoned on East 36th Street. The man told police his cellphone, tablet and wallet, which contained credit cards and his Social Security card, were inside the car when the men took off, the report said. The holdup came the night after police obtained arrest warrants charging Antowine Palmer, 22, Kenneth Jackson, 19, and David Nicholson, 33, in connection with the July 25 pistol-whipping and carjacking of a Barrio employee on Literary Avenue. Palmer and Nicholson remain at large, but Jackson was arrested Monday after police in Slavic Village spotted a Toyota Camry stolen from a couple at gunpoint on West 7th Street the day after the Barrio attack, according to a police report.
