Chapel Hill carjacking | Police looking for ‘armed and dangerous’ teen in weekend carjacking


CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (WTVD) — Chapel Hill Police said Tuesday night that they have identified one of the three suspects in an armed carjacking Saturday morning.

The car theft happened just before 2:30 a.m. Saturday in the 1500 block of East Franklin Street. The stolen vehicle was found two hours later in Durham.

On Tuesday, police said they were looking for 16-year-old Shaun Derek Dunn.

Dunn has been charged with robbery with a dangerous weapon, possession of stolen goods/property, possession of stolen goods/property, felony larceny, felony conspiracy, and second-degree kidnapping.

“We believe Shaun Dunn is armed and dangerous,” said Police Chief Celisa Lehew. “If you see him, call 911 and do not approach him.”

Police added that they have linked the stolen vehicle in the carjacking to an Armed robbery.

“Our investigators are working to identify other suspects in both cases, and I remain confident that we will continue to make progress,” Lehew said.

Anyone with information should call 911 or contact the Chapel Hill Police Department at (919) 968-2760 (8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday). Callers who wish to remain anonymous can call Chapel Hill-Carrboro-UNC Crimestoppers at (919) 942-7515 or go online. Information that leads to an arrest could lead to a reward up to $2,000.
