I was not expecting what I read
A few years ago before I moved, I was walking down to the liquor store for some smokes and I thought I saw a little-ass kid drive by. I get to the store and shortly after I walk through the door, the same car I thought had a kid driving pulls up and out of the driver side door comes this kid no more than 12 years old who comes in behind me and immediately gets a phone call and I could hear a lady on the other end, livid, asking where the car was. I hella wanted to just yell "he stole it and is at the liquor store!" 🤣

I just watched that episode.
What happened to playing with Pokémon?
“Officers from North Yorkshire police were told a caravan had been stolen from a holiday site near Thirsk and was being towed away by a black BMW.
They had tracked the luxury car, which was using cloned registration plates, travelling south on the A1.
About 45 minutes after the caravan was reported stolen, the vehicle was stopped on the M1, having left the A1 near Garforth.
Officers said they were "staggered" to find an 11-year-old boy sitting in the driver's seat of the BMW.
When they searched the car, they found "equipment typically used by suspects to carry out thefts" and a selection of vehicle registration plates.
The boy was arrested on suspicion of offences including theft, burglary, going equipped for theft, and motoring offences including dangerous driving.”
