HARRIS COUNTY, Texas — A man is dead after suffering a heart attack minutes after he was carjacked leaving his neighborhood in north Harris County.

This happened early Friday morning at about 4:53 a.m. in the 2600 block of Owens Cross Drive.

Harris County deputies said the man was headed to work when he was reportedly carjacked by two armed suspects in an unknown vehicle. The suspects took off with the man's car, which is described as a 2016 Black Nissan Juke. 

The man was near his home and was able to run back to call for help. In the process of telling his wife what happened, deputies said the man collapsed and died.
