Teen's Carjacking Attempt Foiled by Inability to Drive Stick
A Florida teen foiled his own attempt to steal a car at gunpoint when he realized he didn't know how to drive a vehicle with standard transmission.
19-year-old Antoren Bell, who also goes by Chief Keef (no relation), was reportedly one of three teens who flagged down a car driving through in Escambia County.
The driver later told local authorities she stopped the car to offer the boys a ride, when Bell suddenly pulled out a gun and ordered her to exit the vehicle.
According to thr Escambia County Sheriff's Office, "[Bell] abandoned the car a short time later because he couldn't drive a stick shift."
The victim identified Bell in a photo lineup, and he was subsequently picked up and charged with vehicle theft, robbery and criminal mischief.
Bell remained in custody yesterday in lieu of a $400,000 bond.
