Police in the gambling mecca of Blackpool, U.K., pulled over an 11-year-old who was driving a car around a public parking lot.
He wasn’t alone. An adult relative had brought him there because he was tired of watching the boy sit in front of the computer playing Grand Theft Auto all day and wanted to show him how to drive for real, police said.
