Man, 92, carjacked in Lockhart neighborhood, deputies say

ORLANDO, Fla. — A 37-year-old was arrested after he carjacked a 92-year-old man in the Lockhart neighborhood Tuesday morning, according to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies said Jonathan Sandoval pushed the victim out of his beige Dodge Neon on Hilton Way around 9:30 a.m. before driving away.

The victim was bleeding from the head, neighbors said, but officials said his injuries were minor.

Sandoval made it to a wooded area behind a church in the 7500 block of Forest City Road, deputies said.

Deputies said Sandoval jumped out of the stolen car and ran before they were able to catch up with him.

Ken Miller said he rents a room from the victim, who he said is named Harry.

"It looked like somebody hit him right on top of the head with something," he said. "I bet you all Harry was doing was starting his car up, (because) his wallet's still in the house."

Miller said the victim spends most of his time repairing watches at a nearby flea market.

A resident told Channel 9 that she photographed the suspect because she saw him wearing a ski mask.

Sandoval was arrested on charges of carjacking and aggravated battery. Deputies said he was previously arrested on drug charges.
