An 8-year-old girl in Ohio took her parents’ vehicle and drove herself to a Target store on Sunday morning, a trip that lasted about 25 minutes. She was initially reported missing, along with the family car, after she was last seen around 7 a.m. that day.
A neighbor provided police with ring camera footage showing the young girl getting into the family’s SUV and driving off alone at around 7 a.m. Officers quickly located the vehicle in the Target parking lot and soon found the girl inside the store.
In a bold move, an 8-year-old Ohio girl decided a Target run was in order, so she grabbed her mom's car keys and took off on a 10-mile joyride. Along the way, she knocked over a mailbox but made it safely to the store, where police found her casually shopping. pic.twitter.com/ed5CjANjiy

When police found her, she was sipping a frappuccino, which they let her finish, humorously noting, “We’re not mean,” in a Facebook post.
The girl admitted to hitting a mailbox during her drive. Target employees also mentioned that she entered the store with over $400, shopped for items, and checked out before police arrived.
