Police say it happened in Toronto over the weekend

Three 15-year-old boys are in police custody following an alleged armed attempted carjacking in Toronto over the weekend.

Police were called early Sunday morning to the Rexdale neighbourhood after three masked boys approached a victim who was entering their vehicle.

One boy allegedly produced a handgun and demanded the victim's car keys before striking the victim over the head with the gun.

The boys, who cannot be identified under the terms of the Youth Criminal Justice Act, are all charged with robbery with a firearm, disguise with intent, and conspiracy to commit an indictable offence. (CTV News)
