CLAYTON – A 20 year-old man is facing numerous charges after he allegedly carjacked an elderly couple in Johnston County, then led authorities on a high speed chase. It was the second car theft of the day for the suspect, Donald Avery Banks of Cary.
Saturday morning, Banks reportedly stole a GMC SUV from the driveway of a home in Raleigh as the owner was warming up the vehicle.
Around 3:30pm Saturday, Banks was driving the stolen SUV on Matthews Road outside of Clayton when he flagged down an elderly couple in a Ford Edge.
Authorities said Banks pulled the elderly driver from his vehicle, then drove away, leaving an elderly female passenger on the ground.
Johnston County deputies responded to the scene and began searching for the suspect and stolen Ford. A short time later a deputy spotted the stolen vehicle and gave chase.
With the assistance of Clayton Police, Banks was captured as he pulled into the Pine Hollow Golf Course.
The elderly couple was transported to Wake Medical Center with minor injuries.

Everyone too busy posting asinine political comments to even take a minute to show concern for the elderly lady left in the street are what’s REALLY wrong with society these days. Believe it or not there are criminals as well as saints in every political affiliation, every race, every gender and in every community. So just stop it with the race/political baiting because you sound ignorant.
I am daily reminded by all these comments how JoCo has some real nutjobs here. The election is OVER! We have a President now. Get over it!!
