A federal grand jury in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania indicted Nasir Warlow, 21, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in connection with a September 3, 2024, carjacking in Southwest Philadelphia.
Warlow entered a plea of guilty before United States District Court Judge Joel H. Slomsky on one count of carjacking and one count of using and carrying a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence.
On March 20, 2025, a federal grand jury indicted Warlow in connection with the carjacking.
At approximately 5:08 a.m., the victim parked his silver 2017 Nissan Sentra on the 6700 block of Woodland Avenue when Warlow and two accomplices, all wearing masks and dressed in black, approached the vehicle.
Warlow approached the driver’s side, pointed a firearm at the victim, and ordered him out of the car, while the two accomplices approached from the passenger side. Warlow and the two accomplices then entered the vehicle and fled northbound on 68th Street.
Police located the stolen Nissan near Cobbs Creek Parkway and Baltimore Avenue and initiated a pursuit. The chase ended when Warlow crashed into the front porch of a residence on the 300 block of Horton Street, causing significant damage to both the home and the vehicle.
Warlow is set to be sentenced on June 8th, 2026, before the Honorable Joel H. Slomsky.
This case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and gun violence, and to make our neighborhoods safer for everyone.
