An Uptown couple who allegedly shot their 1-year-old son in the head as they struggled for control of a gun and then tried to cover it up by lying about what happened have reached plea deals.

Prosecutors say an 18-year-old man carjacked and kidnapped a driver in Uptown earlier this year, but cops tracked him down because he transferred funds from the victim’s CashApp account to his own — which has his real name, address, and birthdate on it.

A federal judge sentenced a 19-year-old man to 12 years in prison on Tuesday for a carjacking in which he allegedly fired a shot toward the victim at point-blank range as she hung out the rear door of the hijacked car.
