Thieves steal vehicle with child inside…

In a bizarre incident, thieves stole a car from Virginia and drove off and it was only a little while later that they realised that an eight-ear-old boy was sitting in the rear seat.

The street-smart thieves decided to drop the boy off to his school before they made their escape with the vehicle, reports UK daily Metro.

They told the boy that his mother had asked them to drop him off to school.

When the mother found her car missing from its usual spot in the parking lot, she immediately called the police.

She had left her son in the car as she had to report for work a little early and so she had left her child in the car, with some music running.

Fortunately for her, the cops found the child sitting in his class 'as if nothing had happened'.

Even more luckily, the mother's car was traced as she had left her iPhone in the car which had a tracking app in it.

However, the two thieves are still at large.
