Newark's Carjacking Epidemic
But the media has been known to sensationalize -- no really, sometimes they do

From earlier this year:There are about 400 carjackings a year in Essex County alone. While Los Angeles and New York rank high in carjackings, Newark takes the cake.
In fact, people in Newark are known for posting videos of stolen cars doing drag races, donuts and drifting in the streets. Often times, in the videos, you can see cop cars chasing the reckless divers on the city’s main streets.
Newark carjackings increase for fourth straight year
Hmmm. Maybe they have a point. Video report also at first link.
