PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Two boys, ages 7 and 11, are accused of trying to rob a woman with a loaded gun, police said Sunday.

The boys tried to carjack a 22-year-old woman who was in her family's truck waiting for her parents in a church parking lot, Portland police said in a statement.

Ami Garrett, of southeast Portland, told officers that when the boys approached her, the younger boy told the older boy to "show her your piece."

The woman said that when she refused to give them her vehicle, they demanded cash and her phone. She said that as she drove away, she saw the 11-year-old boy pull a gun from his pocket.

Quick look at the headline I thought they tried to rob a 7-11. Seven years old with a gun??? Must have grown up watching gangsta movies.

I'm with you on this. You're just as dead if you're killed by a 11 yo as you would be if you're killed by a 20 yo. In fact

Because of their age, the boys could not be taken into custody at a juvenile detention center, so they were returned to their families, police said.
They face virtually no consequences for their criminal actions from the so-called justice system. The only justice is that which comes from the citizens.

Carjack? So which one would have driven the vehicle away, the seven-year-old or the eleven-year-old?
