Wild video shows an 8-year-old Ohio girl swerving her family’s SUV across lanes on a 25-minute joyride to go shopping in Target.
Dashcam footage released Wednesday shows alarmed motorist Justin Kimery calling 911 on Sunday, assuming it was an adult driving dangerously in a 2020 Nissan Rogue, WSAZ reported.
“There’s a guy in a car, he’s like right behind me. He’s swerving all over, he’s swerving everywhere like in all the lanes,” Kimery said — not realizing at first it was a young girl behind the wheel.
Kimery keeps up with the swerving SUV for several minutes, at one point gasping to the operator: “Oh s–t! He just went off the road a little bit.”
The other motorist finally sees who is actually behind the wheel after waiting for the SUV to pass him.
“It looks like a kid,” a shocked-sounding Kimery tells the operator. “What the f–k is this kid doing?”
Police in the nearby Bainbridge Township located the missing vehicle in the parking lot of a local Target — about 10 miles and 25 minutes away from the girl’s home.
They eventually found the girl inside the store, joking in a Facebook post that they “let her finish her Frappuccino” before bringing her back to her parents.
The girl had $400 on her and used it to shop around — which police said they made sure she returned to her parents.
She had checked out before cops arrived, employees told WEWS-TV, without detailing exactly what she bought.
While no one was hurt during her long-winded spin behind the wheel, the little girl confessed she smashed a mailbox somewhere along her route, leaving a dent in her parents’ car.
Police called her parents but said she would not be charged due to her age.
