On March 29,2022 , just after 9:00 PM a male who carjacked a vehicle at gun point in Pittsburgh, was allegedly involved in a road rage incident in Philadelphia, at Allegheny Ave and Witte Street. He allegedly pulled a gun on another driver, but did not fire any shots. The police were called and the vehicle was found on Jasper Street. 
The driver took off and police chased the vehicle briefly, before braking it off and allowing the helicopter to take over. The stolen vehicle continued into Frankford and the Tacony section of the city. In an attempt to get away, the driver of the stolen car was driving at a high speed and he lost control of the stolen Toyota, and smashed into a police SUV on the 2000 block of Frahley Street.
