JACKSON,Chainkeen Miss. (AP) — A teenage suspect in a carjacking last week in Mississippi’s capital city is in custody with bond set at $1.75 million.

Jackson Police said the 14-year-old suspect’s parents surrendered him to deputies at the Copiah County Sheriff’s Office after seeing a video of the carjacking on the news, WAPT-TV reported. The teenager faces charges of carjacking and six counts of aggravated assault in connection with Friday’s incident at a home in west Jackson, the television station reported.

It was not immediately known if the teen had an attorney who could speak on his behalf.

A doorbell camera video shows two women saying goodbye to people inside a vehicle parked in the driveway of the home, when one of the two suspects fires a shot and walks up to them. Some of the victims were forced out of the car at gunpoint. One woman pulls a child out of the backseat and the suspects try to take off in the vehicle but are unable to.

The two suspects then drive off in another car, when a woman throws them the keys. Police have since recovered that vehicle, which has been impounded as part of the investigation.

Efforts to locate the second suspect continue, police said.
