10-Year-Old Drives Home After Fight, Dad Arrested on Unrelated Warrants
In Mt. Juliet, Tennessee, a ten-year-old boy drove himself home from his elementary school after a disagreement with his mother. Police responded to the school after a report of a stolen car with a child inside, discovering the boy had driven the vehicle a mile to his home. The car was found in an open garage with the unharmed child and his father, who was then taken into custody on an outstanding warrant. Authorities decided against filing charges against the child due to his age.
