Kidnapping, Carjacking Suspect ID'd by Gwinnett Police

GWINNETT COUNTY, GA — Gwinnett County Police have obtained arrest warrants for a man they believe kidnapped a woman and her child during a carjacking in August.

Investigators have identified Quinton Rogers, 42, as the suspect, according to a statement from the Gwinnett County Police Department. Authorities are encouraging Rogers to turn himself in to the police.

Rogers, who has warrants against him for hijacking a motor vehicle and kidnapping, is wanted in connection with an Aug. 18 carjacking incident at an Exxon station in Duluth.

That night, a man approached a woman and her car, apparently at random, punched her, and then forced her into the back seat with her 1-year-old child before driving off. Fearing for her life, the woman grabbed her baby's car seat with the child in it and jumped from the moving vehicle. She was later treated for minor injuries. The child was unharmed.

Security video at the gas station recorded the confrontation, as well as the car leaving the parking lot with two of its doors wide open.

Anyone with information is asked to call Gwinnett County Police detectives at 770-513-5300.
