Let’s hope he’s not a cereal offender.
A 10-year-old boy from Stillwater, Minnesota, found himself in hot water last week when, after his parents decided to take a nap, he stole the family minivan to stock up on Cheerios.
Police tried to apprehend the boy driving the Chrysler minivan after noticing the driver was a young boy, according to the local ABC station. After the police put on their emergency lights, the boy sped up to over 50 mph and “blew through a stop sign.”
The cops “tracked” the car and eventually found the van after it went through an intersection in reverse and up an embankment into the front yard of a residence, where the child was apprehended.
The boy then “told the officer his dad wanted him to have cereal before going to school in the morning, so he sent the boy to buy Cheerios at the store,” according to ABC. “The officer, thinking it was unusual, asked the boy if his father was intoxicated and the boy confirmed that to be the case.”
After taking the boy home, police found sleepy but sober parents and the boy admitted his lie.
The parents reported some minor damage to the side of the van but no injuries were reported. No word on the boy’s punishment.
