Two Charged With Attempted Armed Carjacking Of Woman At Highway 29 McDonald’s In Gonzalez

July 9, 2022

Two men have been arrested for trying to carjack a woman at the McDonalds in Gonzalez.

Kevon Lametris Keys, 19, and Diamond Kaneil Slack, 26, are charged with attempted carjacking with a weapon. Slack (pictured left) is also charged with aggravated assault.

The victim had just gone through the drive-thru at the McDonalds on Highway 29 near Old Chemstrand Road. She was in the waiting area of the drive-thru when she was approached by two males that pulled a gun and demanded that she exit her vehicle, according to Escambia County Sheriff Chip Simmons.

“For some reason, they decide to change their mind, made a comment something about ‘you seem like a nice lady’, and they take off and run,” Simmons said.

Keys was jailed with bond set at $50,000, and bond was set at $55,000 for Slack.

    An attempted carjacking with a gun, and all they get is $55,000, and $50,000 bond. Did I wake up in New York?

    They changed their mind for some reason?
    God had mercy on that lady and even on them.
    I’m so thankful.

    What’s sad is they will get probation or a slap on the wrist meanwhile the 72 yo man that locked some animals in a car and these 2 thugs all got about the same amount of bonds. And we wonder what’s wrong with our society.

    I’m sure they needed the car so they could get to their place of employment

    They probably never heard of a job !!!! That’s where you work for the things you want and need !!! It kinda keeps you occupied and it helps to keep you from stealing other people’s stuff!!! So now you gonna have something similar to a job it’s called watching your back 24/7 in prison because of pure and simple stupidity!!! Enjoy every day you get in prison you both deserve a long stay!!!!!
