A 12-year-old boy is charged in a string of armed carjackings in Southeast D.C., authorities say.

Here’s what the Metropolitan Police Department says happened:
March 21, about 5 p.m.: The boy allegedly got out of a vehicle driven by someone else, approached someone in the 2300 block of Elvans Road SE and tried to take something from them. He assaulted the victim but did not take anything, police said.
