You may remember the story of a 10-year-old Norwegian boy who was busted last week for stealing a car and pretending to be a dwarf. You may also think that the ass kicking he likely received afterwards would be enough to mellow him out. That's not the case, as he was just caught stealing a car to go to his grandma's house again.
This time the little troublemaker made it 19 miles away from home instead of 6. At one point he stopped and a bystander took away the keys. Last week the police decided not to press charges and left the punishment up to the parents, but now they're being more proactive by reporting the incident to child services.
"The adults around the boy must take responsibility now before a tragedy occurs," a spokesman for the Vest Oppland police said. "It is scary and very sad that he is allowed to keep going on like this."
Although it's easy to laugh at the absurdity of this string of incidents—e.g. Latarian Milton—there's likely an underlying issue at the root of the kid's behavior. He needs some help to make sure he doesn't turn into a lifetime shithead. We'd hate for this to be the start of a downward spiral.
