Police Investigate Carjacking in Hartford

Police are investigating a carjacking in Hartford on Monday night after two armed men stole a car with two people inside of it, police said.

The carjacking was reported at 9:08 p.m. at 209 Capen Street.

The woman who owns the car had gone into the store, leaving her boyfriend in the passenger seat and another passenger in the backseat, when it happened, police said.

The two armed men ordered the boyfriend to get into the driver seat and told him to drive, police said.
