A six-year-old Michigan boy is in big trouble with his family after he sneaked out of his house and took his father's car on a 6am trip to get Chinese takeout.
Several drivers in Lapeer, Michigan, outside Detroit, called police Saturday morning to report that the car was swerving down the highway.
Other drivers boxed the boy into a turnaround and had pulled the keys out of the ignition by the time a Lapeer County sheriff's deputy arrived.
The youngster told police that he had sneaked out of the house without his father's knowledge because he wanted more of the Chinese food his family had eaten the previous night, Deputy Karl Sapp told the Detroit Press.
'I don’t know how he was able to operate everything and see at the same time,' Sapp said. 'Apparently he was close enough that he could reach the pedals and accelerate and brake too.'
The boy apparently drove to the Chinese restaurant and found that no one was there.
