A German couple living in Berlin was returning from a trip to Spain on Tuesday, when the Polizei stopped them on a motorway and detained them for questioning. The reason? The parent’s 14 year-old son had taken their new €200,000 (US$280,000) Ferrari (the police didn’t reveal the model, just the make) for a spin, initiating a police operation for his capture that lasted many hours!
“The 14-year-old was unable to resist the temptation,” the police told the AFP. “When an acquaintance of the family noticed the car and the boy were missing, he suspected theft or even an abduction.”
The young boy faces many charges, including driving without a license, but thankfully returned the Ferrari without a scratch. Despite his situation, the boy was “totally unrepentant”, according to the German police officers at the scene.
Well, we guess no Ferrari-loving boy would, either…
