(CBS13) ELK GROVE Police say a local 8-year-old led them on a chase through the streets of Elk Grove Monday. But it doesn’t stop there. What the boy’s mother did surprised police even more.

Police say they got a call from an 8-year-old boy’s grandmother. The boy had taken the keys to the family car for a mid-day joy ride.

“We attempted to stop the vehicle using emergency lights and sirens at which point the young man did not pull over. He did not comply,” says Officer Chris Trim with the Elk Grove Police Department.

Police followed the boy for 5-10 minutes at speeds between 25 and 35 miles-per-hour down Elk Grove Boulevard.

“He had difficulty maneuvering the vehicle as far as taking turns, and at one point he did cause a collision,” says Trim.

The collision happened at Elk Grove and Fire Poppy Drive. Another driver was injured, but the boy kept heading home to his house.

“The young man was holding on to the steering wheel, wouldn’t let go, at which point the mother of the child exited the house and ran towards the officers and attacked the officers, striking several of them in the chest,” says Trim.

“The mom just ran out of the house and started fighting with police,” says neighbor Sue Wu.

Wu says she saw police subdue and arrest Heather Bollinger, the boy’s mother, for child endangerment and assault on a peace officer.

“She was spitting at police and scratching,” says Wu.

Wu tells CBS13 the child was out of school because the family was moving, and that they were going through a rough time.

Still, police are confused.

“I couldn’t tell you how an 8-year-old learns to drive and manages to lead the police department on a pursuit,” says Trim.

Bollinger is being held on $50,000 dollars bail. The child was released to his grandmother.

This is all I needed to see before I decided that the police should've broke out the AR-15's and turned her into an air filter.

[Arsenal]

what the hell... no wonder our society is collapsing on itself.

[MrBuster]

Damn it, why did I not become a police so I could have the pleasure in tazering that lil bastard. I would have enjoyed that like it was sex.

[GC!?]

what I was more interested in is WHY the 8-year old was driving.

crazy bitch :(

[Spirit Juice]

What the fuck? I live in Elk Grove and I didn't hear of such a thing. Then again, I don't really read the newspaper or watch the news at night.

Mixah, how did you come across this article?

I would've pit manuvered the kid or spin him out to really give him a scare

This kid is a hero. When I was 7 I crashed my mom's nissan into the fence around the driveway. This kid made it so much further.

My money's on him not wearing a seat belt since he's a stupidshit 8 year old, meaning that your "scare" = death by pit manuever. Which is pretty ballsy and I'm all for it.

If I was that child father. He would of gotten an ass whipping of lifetime...

As for the mother who attacked the cops, if I was a one of the I would of broke the baton over her head or something. If there one thig you dont do is attack law enforcement who are armed with weapons! Apparently the mother took her anger out on the wrong person...

[Spirit Juice]

My question is how that kid was even able to reach the pedals and see over the steering wheel at the same time. :|

[Logos]

I'm guessing the mom is just one of those crazy ghetto bitches who think all cops are out to kill and ruin lives.

[Mixah]

My question is how that kid was even able to reach the pedals and see over the steering wheel at the same time. :|

I knew kids that were 5'2 in 3rd grade... 8 years old.

[Arsenal]

If I'm an officer, and I'm trying to diffuse a potentially lethal situation, and some retard runs up on me out of nowhere, starts hitting and spitting on me, I'd be damn sure to use whatever's necessary to put that retard DOWN. Hard.

[Zero619]

My question is how that kid was even able to reach the pedals and see over the steering wheel at the same time. :|

yeah you are right but real question is what poseesed him to do it in the first place? If I did that if my parents had a car. I probably would of gotten grounded from the till my 21st birthday.

Still i have to give the kid his props from going so far in that car. But I'l would not like to be him when his mom gets out of jail...

Kids are freaks these days. Jesus. Sometimes at my work I see god damn 7th graders that are taller than me. What the fuck...

Mixah, how did you come across this article?

Front page of the Metro section of The Bee (shitrag that that newspaper is...)

EDIT: I've got another "WTF is wrong with parents?" story...

I have a small side job (which is more of a hobby really, becaue the job pays shit) teaching karate. Yesterday, when I come into the dojo, I find that the manager has a bunch of mats with wet spots on them up, which of course means some kid pissed himself.

Yeah, dealing with children peeing themselves (or worse) sucks, but when you deal with kids, you face the possiblity of cleaning up after them. Anyway, the kicker of the story is this...

The manager quietly has the kid go off to the bathroom to clean himself up (no need to further humiliate the kid, right?), and then afterward the mom comes up and says:

"Oh, I'm sorry. [insert name here] said he had to go before we left, but we were running late..."

WHAT. THE. FUCK.

[Rhythm1c]

I notice they didn't mention the kids father..............

It's just the misdirection of responsibility in this society. It's easier to blame someone else then yourself.

As horrible as it sounds, I think my sister could very well do the same thing this woman did.

Sucks to be a cop when society in general has the consensus that it's not their fault but yours.

[Ninja Wallace]

Stair that bitch.

with good reason, if she'd been black she probably woulda got shot. this would have been after they tazered the kid outta the car.

LMAO.

Well, I would've tazered her for quite a while for trying this shit.

[Starhammer]

what exactly was her reason for attacking the cops? they did the right thing putting her behind bars. one less idiot raising offspring. I hope the dad has more brains than she does.

Cops should be allowed to run crazy bitches over with lawnmowers.
