Youngstown police say they may have found at least one of two men who attacked and tried to rob an elderly woman in her own driveway.

Seventy-year-old Sallie Santangelo pulled into her driveway on East Ravenwood Wednesday night and that's when two tried to rob her.  Reports say one of them hit her in the head and across the face with a handgun and dragged her out of the car, demanding her bank number.

Her screams alerted neighbors and the two suspects took off in the victim's car.
 
Police say they have a 17 year old in custody.  They found him in the victim's stolen car, along with a gun.

So far, they have filed no charges.
