Chicago Man Sentenced to Nearly a Decade in Prison for Armed Carjacking

A federal judge has handed down a significant sentence to Allen Clay, a 23-year-old Chicago man, for his involvement in a 2022 armed carjacking in West Town. The incident led to a high-speed police chase that culminated in a crash, resulting in serious consequences for Clay.

According to court records, Clay pleaded guilty to charges of carjacking and using a firearm during a violent crime. U.S. District Judge Robert Blakey sentenced Clay to a total of 117 months behind bars, with 33 months for the carjacking charge and an additional 84 months for the firearm offense.

The carjacking took place on April 25, 2022, when Clay and his accomplice, Naronn Cain, were riding in a vehicle. Cain became agitated with the driver for driving too slowly, prompting a violent outburst. The pair pulled up next to a parked white 2011 Kia Optima, and Clay brandished a loaded 9-millimeter handgun at the driver, while Cain also aimed a firearm at the victim. Clay then ordered the female passenger out of the car at gunpoint.

After stealing the Kia, the duo was quickly tracked down by police using the passenger’s AirPods. A high-speed chase ensued, with Illinois State Police troopers pursuing the stolen vehicle until it crashed on the 87th Street overpass at the Dan Ryan Expressway. Clay and Cain were apprehended at a nearby gas station following the crash.

During questioning at the police station, Cain revealed that he had been pressured by the mother of his child to return home by a certain time, or else he would not see his kids again. This led him to commit the armed carjacking in a reckless and dangerous manner.

Prosecutors noted in Clay’s sentencing memorandum that his life has been marked by violence, yet he continues to perpetrate acts of violence against others for personal gain. However, Clay’s defense attorney argued that he has the potential to reform and become a law-abiding member of society.

Previously, Cain was sentenced to 10 years and five months for his role in the carjacking. Both Clay and Cain have been ordered to pay $4,325 in restitution to the victims of the crime.
