Kids have a lot of things to worry about these days, but until Monday, scooterjacking wasn't one of them. That all changed when an 11-year-old boy from Ohio was arrested earlier this week for attempting to steal two kids' scooters with a plastic gun.The incident unfolded at a park outside Cincinnati, where Kyle Harrison, 8, and his sister Ryan, 11, were confronted while riding on their metal scooters. According to the police report, a boy they didn't know told them, "We're going to play a game. I'm going to take your scooter," and then brandished a real-looking gun.
The siblings took off on their scooters and the boy chased after them with the toy gun, stopping only after they reached their father. Cops found the perpetrator and took him to a juvenile detention center to await a court appearance.
Though we don't condone the robbery, we think it would have been amusing to see the kid try to flee on a hot scooter.

Castrate him NOW so he doesn't reproduce. Sterilize his parents too.

Look out, the kid with the plastic gun won't get any smarter, just bigger, stronger and old enough to buy a real gun.

This 11 year old is already a Thug.. He has been exposed to these doings some where in his family and or surroundings. Ohio is one of the worst crime states in the U.S.A. It is not his fault he was raised there, but one thing, his parents should know his where abouts at all times. Being put in Juvenile Hall may scare him a little, or it can make him worse. If his parents care enough about him, they need to have a strict hand on him and let him know that what he did was WRONG!!, Make this kid do a face to face apology to both brother and sister in front of everyone. That can be embarrasing enough for him to never want to do that again. Next thing, put him in Military school. He needs decipline, also have him checked out for any mental problems. Resolve the problem now, before he ends up killing others, and then himself. That is my opinion...

You're right Diane. And noone can convince me that it wasn't an attempt to mimic the sorry TV shows and movies that kids are raised with. Unless, of course, his parents are criminals and actually taught this behavior to him.
C'mon, anyone want to explain where an 11 year-old got such an idea if not from TV? You know our media feeds this crap to our kids. How about a little more "Leave It To Beaver", and a little less of "Women Behind Bars".
~you feed your kid the media. the media doesnt turn the tv on, or flip the channel.

i think that the reason things like this happens is because of the response that we give, (we being society). this is aan 11 year old boy he tried to rob some other kids. throwing a charge on him and putting him in kids jail is only giving him the perception that he is an criminal. i know we all wanna think that our correction facility works but it doesnt. statistics show those who go to juvenile correction will be back to the actual jail if not prison. there was another incident with a young boy that stole his parents car and ran from the police just to avoid church. if you ask me they both have something missing in their everyday diet and that is God. and its our fault as elders.

so wat bothers you more that their black or the incident. i dont know if the kid was black or white but if he was black ive seen both in the news for crimes just this week. the only things is the kid that stole the car and ran from the police got off with nothing. the kid that tried to rob the other kids is waiting charges. now answer me this which one do you think is more dangerous a toy gun or a two ton car. thats if the boy was black. dont be a racist sam it will only stunt your growth

OK here's the story a father takes his kids to the park they are white they have a race around the pound the father sees across the pound some black kids messing with his kids and sees what appears to be a gun pulled on his kids he calls 911 i know i live a few blocks away the city of Cincinnati has turned the west side of Cincinnati into a ghetto i grew up here they closed down the housing ghettos around Cincinnati 10 to 15 years ago then the Cincinnati housing authority bought up cheap or got it for free then put blacks in free houses thus driving property value now its a mess that shows you how the black community lives off the government if you do not earn it you will not respect it

sam im stunned at your lack of knowledge, im a student in this particular field and if you dont know the facts then dont speak on them. first of all the goverment doesnt give anything away for free, you have work in some way, form or fashion for it. that includes foodstamps, and housing based on your income. theres is an equal amount of whites on goverment assistance if not more than blacks. dont be so quick to down people because of the status or color of skin. God has a funny way of putting you in their shoes when you dont expect it. learn this sam the world is round your turn will come. some people saw a little of that when the recession hit, everybody gets there turn.
