12-Year-Old Has Broken Into 5 Car Dealerships, Stole Cars…Cops Can't Charge Him Because He's A Minor

Posted • August 31, 2024: A 12-year-old accused of breaking into five dealerships and stealing cars, but police can’t charge him because of a juvenile justice law. The 12-year-old boy is accused of targeting five dealerships in Montgomery County, including Audi and BMW in Rockville. According to reports each time police have caught the boy, they have had to drop him off at home in D.C. Police couldn't hold him due to a Maryland juvenile justice law preventing kids under 13 from being charged with property crimes.
