A woman in New Mexico allegedly stole a car with two children inside on July 4 in Hobbs, New Mexico.

The Hobbs Police Department said that a woman parked her white Hyundai Santa Fe in front of a store, and when she returned, an unknown female pushed her and got into the vehicle, driving off.

Traffic camera video shows the mother attempting to stop the carjacking by getting on the hood of the car, but was unsuccessful at stopping the other woman.

Inside the car were the woman's 6-year-old daughter and 11-month-old son.
