A man and woman were arrested in Des Moines after at least one armed carjacking on Thursday. One police officer fired his handgun, but it does not appear that anyone was shot, according to Kent police. The incident began when Des Moines officers found a suspected stolen vehicle. The suspects fled, despite officers using tire deflation devices. Officers did not initially pursue the vehicle due to state law restricting when pursuits can occur, according to Kent police. A few minutes later, the suspects attempted to carjack another vehicle at gunpoint. They were unsuccessful, got back in the original vehicle and continued to flee police - driving on rims. Kent police officers joined Des Moines police, who were now pursuing the suspects. The vehicle crashed. The suspects got out of the vehicle, carjacked another vehicle at gunpoint and continued to flee. The vehicle crashed into oncoming traffic in the area of South 224th Street and Pacific Highway South, sideswiping a taxi and multiple other vehicles. "My taxi driver was paying attention and trying to get out of the way," said the taxi passenger, Andrew McGuire. "We didn't have very much room to do so." "I even asked police, these people can make a lot of damage when (they're) chasing someone, but they told me he shot something, so we had to stop them," the taxi driver, Hassan Warsame said.
