WINDERMERE, Fla. – Orange County deputies arrested two men who they say were involved in an armed carjacking incident.

On Saturday, deputies arrested Victor Senatore, 24, and GianPiero Gasparin, 17 according to a tweet from the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.

The incident happened Monday in the Windermere area. Deputies responded to a neighborhood after 10 p.m. after getting the call from a carjacking victim.

The Orange County Sheriff’s Office released security footage of the incident, showing the two men approach the victim as he pulled up to his home.

The victim told authorities he had pulled into his driveway and parked his car when he saw two men run across the street in his direction as he got out of the car, the incident report reads.

Investigators offered to treat the victim but he refused medical attention, according to the incident report. The victim told deputies one of the thieves drove his car southbound on Remsen Cay Lane. The second man ran across the street and followed him in a red car, authorities said.

The victim said he doesn’t believe he was followed home nor does he know the two men who took his car. He told deputies they also took off with an Apple Mac laptop valued at $3,000 and a set of golf clubs valued at $1,500, which were in the car, according to the report.
