A carjacking at a discount store parking lot ended in a high-speed chase and crash in Central Fresno.

Police say the suspect threatened the owner of a white Jeep with a knife near Griffith and West around 3 p.m. The woman was able to get her one-year-old child out of the car before the man drove off.
