MIAMI (CBSMiami) -- Two teenagers are under arrest for carjacking a teacher in the parking lot of Biscayne Gardens Elementary School.

Both suspects are only 13-years-old.

It happened September 25 and it was captured on surveillance video.

Teacher Flora Martinez was walking to her car when one of the boys approached her with a gun and demanded her keys.

She complied and handed over the keys.

He and the other boy got into the car and drove off,  but they didn't get very far. The driver crashed the car trying to exit the teacher's parking at 560 NW 151st Street.

The 13-year-olds, from North Miami Beach and unincorporated North Miami-Dade, were charged Monday with armed robbery and carjacking and are being held at the Juvenile Assessment Center pending a hearing on Oct. 10.
