[anon]

A 7-year-old boy in Utah was so desperate to avoid church that he ended up leading police officers on a car chase after driving off in his father's car.

Police dispatchers received reports of a child driving recklessly in a Dodge Intrepid on Sunday morning, with one witness saying the boy had driven through a stop sign.

Anderson says two deputies caught up with the boy and tried unsuccessfully to stop the vehicle, in Plain City, to the north of Salt Lake City.

The car reached speeds of 40 mph before the boy stopped in a driveway and ran inside a home.

Yes; you should have seen the video on the news today. He stopped the car, got out, and ran like crazy

lmao. I bet he'll have to have intensive therapy to calm him down

Not that long ago, some kid about 10 years old got in his moms car or something and took it out for a joy ride... I forget where, but I think he did it because his mom tried to punish him...

I fairly sure I wouldn't have been able to reached the pedals at that age and see at the same time. crazy.
