She actually had $400 cash on her and made purchases. The police made the store take the items back and restore the money to the parents. The parents will not be charged.

Had she died or hit someone the parent for sure would have been charged

I guess yall don't do no investigating huh lol? she had 400 with her ...that fact is everywhere but here . nobody knows that starbucks are inside of target smh .

[symone]

The fact that the 8 year had no fear of taking the vehicle is an issue… we had a healthy fear of our mother…

How does a 8-year old know how to drive? Even if she was taught her parents. I was scared as heck, driving my first time at age, 16 in an empty parking lot on a quiet Sunday.

They let her finish her Frappuccino 😅😂🤣

Glad no one was hurt BUT yall act like you have a eye on your 8yr old 24/7 in the house!!! If Im in the kitchen cooking upstairs making beds in the laundry room any numerous of things my 8yr old could easily if they wanted take my car and leave...ONCE.. You best believe they would never do it again...

The news people laughing about this that's no laughing matter she could have killed somebody or got herself killed

She did better than the guy who drove over Johnny Gaudreau, and his brother. She wasn't impaired, and a mailbox is alot easier mistake to fix.

If I did this with my parent’s car and their money, I wouldn’t be sitting here writing this comment right now!😅

If an 8 year old doesn’t know it is very very wrong to drive a car on the road that is a massive parental failure. And it is nothing but wrong to celebrate it.

If an 8 year old kid drove an SUV and accidentally hit one of those tv reporters' cars, I wonder if they would be laughing...they'd be aware that it was never funny in the first place. They would know that it's serious and a potential risk and danger for someone without a driver's license to drive a vehicle. Someone could have been seriously injured or killed. How is this funny?

There's something wrong with ohio kids not long a go a 7 years old did the same thing

[rubyred]

Well her family has a lil shoperista on their hands, you know we all love Starbucks and finding a good bargain or two at Targeé!! 👍😃

I blame the Mattel commercials for the must have new Barbie.

[jonneil]

she had $400 cash that she may have borrowed from home.

What's with children taking cars??

[JeepsCafe]

I could drive a stick shift back in 5th grade. Drove around out in the country dirt roads back in Visalia California.

She will certainly be in trouble with her parents if she took their money

[irenemunoz]

Here we go ! Of course, no charges, nothing . Is the child Caucasian, UMM ! Stopped at Starbucks, had $ 400.00 dollars, apparently paid for items at store, and not one damn person caught on till Parents called to report her missing ??? I sure if she was a black or brown, she would have been handcuffed, and booked into jail ... This is not cute or funny, People
