Car-Thief Kid Busted, Lazy Mum Blames Driving On "PlayStation"
9 year-old Semaj Booker's got issues. In the past month he's:
- Stolen a car and crashed it during a police chase in Tacoma.
- Been busted trying to sneak onto a flight bound for Texas.
- Stole another car in Tacoma, got into a 90mph car chase with police then crashed into a tree when he blew the engine, and had to be forcibly removed from the wreckage.
- And...stole another car in Seattle, where he was caught in the vehicle when it ran out of gas.
So, yeah, issues. Guess what, though? His mother says he "learned to drive from playing video games on a PlayStation".
My dear, no PlayStation game will teach your son how to drive a real car. May I suggest another scapegoat? Luke Plunkett
