Stowaway Boy Is Returning To Mpls., His Father Speaks Out
http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2013/10/08/source-boy-stowaway-being-returned-to-minneapolis/
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — The father of the 9-year-old boy who stowed away on a flight to Las Vegas is now speaking out, as his son is reportedly on his way back to Minnesota.
The father did not want his name or face revealed, because his son is a minor, and according to a CNN source, the boy was being returned “because the jurisdiction where the boy is from is where issues will be addressed.â€
“My son is not a terrorist — he’s a 9-year-old,†the father said. “Misunderstood, but a very intelligent young man.â€
The boy stole a truck.
But back on Oct. 1, the boy was accused of jumping into a delivery truck with automatic transmission in Minneapolis. The 9-year-old allegedly drove the 30-foot refrigerated truck through downtown Minneapolis and onto southbound I-35, getting off near 50th street and driving west into Edina.
The boy made it to 56th and Xerxes, where he apparently crashed into a number of parked cars and two trees before colliding with an Edina squad car.

My husband's cousin was like that as a kid. Always getting into bizarre situations. He grew up and turned out all right.
