A car thief was forced to pull over after a couple miles in the stolen vehicle because twin boys, age 7, who were in the car attacked him, police said.
“One of the boys was punching the man in the face; the other was hitting him with a rubber snake,” Sgt. Javier Salazar of the San Antonio Police Department told ABC News.
The car was swiped from in front of the home of Lucia Lozada Thursday as the mother was standing just feet from the vehicle. Her twin sons and a 1-year-old were buckled into the car as the family readied to go to church. The father had gone back into the house to get the baby a bottle.

Like your tag line. Very appropo, imo.
Good thing the boy didn’t point the snake at him and say bang or the outcome would be quite different.
That’s the first thing that crossed my mind. Ransom of Red Chief X 2.

Way to fight back boys!
Extra style points for the rubber snake. Nice touch. Had to be pretty funny to see a kid beating a carjacker silly with it.
What are the twins being charged with?
Out in the real world, you can be charged with “Going armed to the terror of the public” for walking around with your snek.
Snake is the new black.
It doesn’t show dirt!
Don’t rubber-snake me, bro!
Those kids may very well have saved three lives.
