DISTRICT HEIGHTS, Md. — Maryland State Police arrested Adin Tyrone Carr, 20, of District Heights, following a months-long investigation into illegal street exhibitions and takeovers in Prince George’s County, authorities announced Wednesday. During the arrest, law enforcement uncovered 14 firearms at two residences in Rockville and District Heights.
The investigation, led by the Maryland Car Rally Task Force, began in June 2024, after officers observed Carr in possession of a firearm during one of the street exhibitions. According to police, Carr was seen holding an AR-style pistol while leaning out of a vehicle’s window.
As an underage individual, Carr was prohibited by law from possessing firearms, prompting further investigation in collaboration with the Maryland Attorney General’s Office.
On September 4, the Maryland Car Rally Task Force, alongside multiple law enforcement agencies, executed search warrants at the two residences. The operation led to the discovery of eight handguns and six long guns. Carr was located at the District Heights residence and was arrested on scene. An additional firearm was found on Carr at the time of his arrest.
Carr has been charged with multiple firearms violations, including possession of a handgun on person, possession of a handgun in a vehicle, and illegal possession of a regulated firearm by a minor.
Further charges are pending as investigators continue their consultation with the Attorney General’s Office.
The Maryland Car Rally Task Force includes several local and state law enforcement agencies and has been instrumental in addressing illegal exhibition driving across Prince George’s County and other areas. Efforts remain focused on reducing the public safety risks posed by these events.
