Police say a 9-year-old boy stopped a carjacking Wednesday by pulling the keys from the car's ignition before the suspect could drive away.
Malik Youngblood is a 4th grader at J.E. Robbins Elementary. He was sitting in his mother's car at a Charleston convenience store Wednesday night when Jonathan Martin allegedly jumped into the car and tried to drive off.
His mother had gone inside and in the back seat were his three brothers ages 3, 19 months and 4 months.
Court documents say Martin told arriving cops: " I'm guilty. I tried to steal the car. I knew the kids were there, sorry." The Sissonville area man is charged with 4 counts of kidnapping and auto theft and other unrelated crimes. A magistrate set Martin's bond at 400,000 dollars.
