15-Year-Old Carjacks 12-Year-Old

2008_3_12.car.jpgRemember the thrill of warming up the car for your parents before you were old enough to drive? It's exciting just to sit behind the wheel, cranking the heat and cursing the cold. You know. Unless you get carjacked.

A 12-year-old was warming up his mom's car on the 3100 block of W Flournoy this morning when a 15-year-old allegedly pointed a pistol at him and demanded the car. Two hours later, police found the offender driving around in the 2002 Nissan. He's being charged as an adult later this afternoon. [Trib, CBS]
