A Chicago man, Earrious Moore, 30, was sentenced to more than 14 years in federal prison nearly six years after a 2018 crime spree in the Gold Coast and nearby neighborhoods, according to court documents.<\/p>\n
Moore pleaded guilty to two counts of carjacking, using a firearm during a crime, and causing bodily injury while attempting to carjack, according to his plea deal. He was sentenced to 14 and a half years in prison last week.<\/p>\n
On April 16, 2018, at 4:15 p.m., Moore pointed a pistol at a person inside a 2011 Jeep Patriot in the 1000 block of North Rush Street and told the three occupants, \u201cGet the f\u2014 out of the car and give me everything you got, drop your cellphones,\u201d according to court documents. Later that day, he threatened another person with the same pistol, demanding they get out of a 2016 Ford Escape. He then drove off in the car.<\/p>\n
Around 5:10 p.m. Moore approached the driver\u2019s side of a 2009 Jaguar XF in the 1100 block of North Milwaukee Avenue and threatened the driver in a similar manner, according to court documents. \u201cGet the f\u2014 out of your car, I\u2019m taking your car,\u201d Moore told the occupant. \u201cLeave your phone.\u201d He later crashed the vehicle into several parked cars in the 800 block of North Halsted Street.<\/p>\n
Less than an hour after he took the Jaguar, at North Rush and East Oak streets, Moore approached a 2010 Nissan Maxima and pointed the pistol at the driver\u2019s head while demanding they get out of the car, according to court documents. The driver refused, and Moore shot him in the right arm before he fled. Shortly after that, Moore approached a 2016 Mercedes-Benz S550 in the 1440 block of North DuSable Lake Shore Drive and attempted to carjack another vehicle, though the driver ducked and hit the accelerator, according to court documents. Moore shot the driver in the back as the driver fled.<\/p>\n
Moore was arrested later that night and admitted to officers he had attempted to steal the Mercedes-Benz, according to court documents. Moore had previously been sentenced to a year in prison for assault in 2012 and 18 months of supervision for domestic assault in 2017.<\/p>\n
