Teens kidnap teacher at knifepoint

[Ian David]

LAWRENCE, Mass. -- Two teens were arraigned in Lawrence Juvenile Court Tuesday after taking a fourth-grade teacher hostage and using her ATM card to withdraw cash.

Police said the two teens approached teacher Lisa Apovian, asking if they could borrow a phone so that they could get a ride to Lawrence. Apovian said she would instead drive them herself.

Within minutes after being in the car, the two teens held a knife to her throat and went on an hour-long ride from Haverhill through Lawrence with a 15-year-old behind the wheel.

The teens also made a stop at an ATM machine and used her card to make 10 withdrawals of $40 each.

Seconds after, the teacher saw police and made a run from the car, screaming for police to help her. The police than gave chase and followed the car until it crashed out of control into a driveway post in Lawrence's Mount Vernon neighborhood.
