11-Year Old Girl Spends $1,300 on a Cab to Get From Arkansas to Florida: Boyfriend

Love stories are not quite our field of practice, but we do stumble upon some oddities that simply have to be reported every once in a while. Unfortunately this particular case is not really the modern Romeo and Juliet tale you’d imagine since the 11-year old girl stoled the money for her grandmother so that she could meet her 16-year old boyfriend.

The taxi driver later said he didn’t realized the girl was that young since she was wearing a lot of make up and was dressed like an adult.

Everything started a couple of years ago, when the two kids met and ever since they have been talking online. According to the police, the girl hitched a ride from Bryant to west Little Rock early December 5 and summoned a cab to a donut shop. There, she gave the cab driver $1,300 she took from her grandmother earlier that day.

Soon after she went missing her parents reported it to the police. Luckily, authorities used cellphone records to link her to the boy and the cab service. The Georgia State Petrol stopped the cab west of Atlanta and according to Ellis Houston, a managing partner with the taxi company, the girl “was in a sweatsuit with a lot of makeup on and she looked like she was 17 or 18 years old. Maybe the driver lacked a little bit of judgement”.

Nobody was charged over the whole incident, as the grandmother would not press charges, nor did the parents against the taxi firm. As to the girl, her deed did not pass unpunished as her father said he had already confiscated her cellphone and makeup.

We're happily nobody got hurt, but this little adventure makes you wonder what our own kids will think of when they get that age.
