BREAKING NEWS – Detroit, Michigan – Detroit Police stated that three children, between the ages of 11 and 14, were the most recent arrests in rising cases of carjackings throughout the city.
A trio of kids – ages 11, 12, and 14 – were arrested in the storage lot of the Jefferson North Plant while trying to carjack the new Dodge Hellcat Chargers and Challengers.
Police Lt. Clive Stewart is the head of the Detroit Police Commercial Auto Theft Unit and said he’s never seen anything like this before.
“They think it’s fun and there is no penalty to it,” Stewart said. “Doing this as long as I’ve been doing this, 11 is the youngest. One of the kid’s mother was actually angry us for causing her 11 year old son to cry, by taking away his automatic weapon that he was reaching for during the arrest.”
