Authorities are searching for the second suspect involved in an armed carjacking in Hollywood that ended in a chase and the other suspect's death while in police custody.
Hollywood Police on Tuesday released surveillance footage of the second suspect in a convenience store on the night of the armed carjacking, which happened on Nov. 14 at a gas station in the 3400 block of Sheridan Street.
Police said the two suspects, including the unidentified suspect and 16-year-old Christopher Walls, robbed a victim at gunpoint and stole the victim's Alfa Romeo.
Walls led police on a nearly 20-mile pursuit that ended in a crash in Miami-Dade, officials said.

Miami-Dade Fire Rescue responded and treated Walls at the scene, before Miami-Dade Police took custody of the teen, officials said.
"During the course of the investigation, the subject became unconscious and was transported by Miami-Dade Fire Rescue to Hialeah Hospital where he was pronounced deceased," Miami-Dade Police said in a news release.
It was later learned that several officers with the Hollywood Police Department were placed on paid leave while their actions from the incident are under review.
