The boy who lives in Dokka, Norway stole the vehicle while his parents were sleeping and for some reason decided to take his 18-month-old sister with him. He says that he wanted to go visit his grandparents in Valdres, Norway which is about a 60 kilometers, which is about 37 miles. He got about 10 km, or 6 miles, before veering off the road where he was found by a snowplow who alerted police.
‘The parents woke up and discovered that the children were missing and that someone had taken off with their car. They were pretty upset, as you can imagine,’ said Baard Christiansen, a spokesman for the Vest Oppland police district. ‘The boy told the snowplow driver that he was a dwarf and that he had forgotten his driver’s license at home. We have talked to them, and I’m pretty sure they’re going to pay very close attention both to their children and to their car keys in the future.” The children were unharmed and the car was not damaged in the crash. Also no charges were filed against the boy.
