AnimationTrack:Stop() doesn't work

So I made a script that makes the player play an animation when he moves left.
The problem is that when I play the animation, it works properly but when I tried to stop it, it says its an unknown global.

Here is the script :

local function onLeft(actionName, inputState)
	if inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then
		local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
		local animationId = 10874895922
		animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://" ..animationId
		local AnimationTrack = hum:LoadAnimation(animation)
		AnimationTrack:Play(0.100000001, 1, -1)
		leftValue = 1
		currentDirection = -1
		playerOrient(math.rad(90))
		lastDirection = -1
	elseif inputState == Enum.UserInputState.End then
		Animationtrack:Stop()
		leftValue = 0
	end
end

Remove the local in local AnimationTrack.

What is happening is that you have something local inside a different if statement so what you could is you can set it before the if statement like
local AnimTrack
then just remove local for all the other AnimTrack variables

local AnimationTrack

local function onLeft(actionName, inputState)
	if inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then
		if not AnimationTrack then --Check if animation is loaded.
			local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
			local animationId = 10874895922
			animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://" ..animationId
			AnimationTrack = hum:LoadAnimation(animation) --Load animation if not loaded.
		end
		AnimationTrack:Play(0.100000001, 1, -1) --Play loaded animation.
		leftValue = 1
		currentDirection = -1
		playerOrient(math.rad(90))
		lastDirection = -1
	elseif inputState == Enum.UserInputState.End then
		AnimationTrack:Stop()
		leftValue = 0
	end
end

Just to clarify what the other replies were inferring.
