Police looking for armed carjacker

Joshua Gutierrez

A one-time Holmesburg resident is being sought by Philadelphia police and the FBI for his suspected involvement in a pair of armed carjackings last month.

Joshua Gutierrez, 22, has lived on the 4700 block of Shelmire Ave. in Holmesburg as well as the 500 block of E. Ashmead St. in East Germantown and the 2700 block of Waterloo St. in Fairhill, authorities said.

The carjackings occurred at unspecified locations in the city on June 7 and 8. In each, Gutierrez and several accomplices allegedly threatened men at gunpoint and stole their vehicles, wallets and mobile phones.

Gutierrez is considered armed and dangerous. He is 5 feet 8 inches tall, 160 pounds and has a tattoo on his left forearm of two clown faces bracketed by the words, “That’s Life.”

Call the FBI at 215–418–4000 or Philadelphia police at 215–686-TIPS to report information about the fugitive. There may be a reward, according to the FBI. Callers may remain anonymous. ••
