Kids starting a fire, taking a vehicle set off warning from Mounties in B.C.
Police say a seven-year-old boy found a small blow torch in his home on Sept. 18, managed to connect it to a propane cylinder and started a fire inside his home.
Last week, police in Mission, B.C., shared an example of just how creative children can be after two incidents involving young kids. On September 18th, a seven-year-old boy found a small blow torch in his home, successfully connected it to a propane cylinder, and started a small fire inside. Firefighters responded and extinguished the blaze.
The same day, a four-year-old boy stole the keys from his parents' Cadillac Escalade, climbed inside, started the vehicle, and drove it into two parked cars nearby. Although no one was hurt, the RCMP released a statement reminding parents to be vigilant and consider ways to reduce potential risks in their homes.
