12 year old arrested for opening his Christmas gifts early.
A Rock Hill, S.C., woman called police and asked them to arrest her son who opened a Christmas present early after being told not to, the Rock Hill Herald reported.
Police went to the house and arrested the boy and charged him with petty larceny.
The boy's great-grandmother had specifically told him not to open his present, which contained a Nintendo Game Boy Advance. It was wrapped and lying under the Christmas tree, the police report stated.
After threat of calling the police, the boy apparently gave the toy back to his mother, but the upset mother called police anyway.
