Officers arrived at around 5 a.m. on Wednesday "and discovered the person behind the wheel was a 9-year-old girl,""The young girl and her 4-year-old sister apparently snagged the keys to the family car while their parents were sleeping," police said.

Before exiting the freeway, the car hopped a median and slammed "head-on into a semi truck," said police. As the officer with the bodycam approached, another officer was already on scene treating the children. The arriving officer looked inside the car, pointed to a child and said in apparent surprise, "she's driving?"

Mounties arrest nine more protesters demonstrating against old-growth loggingRCMP make nine more arrests, bringing total to 151 so far at B.C. protests against old-growth logging Make like a tree and leave. Police paid with citizen tax dollars, doing the bidding of corporations, is it not obvious the government no longer represents its constituents? I would say this is indeed the case. Old growth is protected and to see the government capitulate to industry to destroy the little remaining old growth that they are mandated to protect.
