Texas boy steals dad's credit cards, hires hookers

This almost sounds like a movie treatment, rather than something from a news agency:

A 13 year old from Newark, Texas confessed to ordering an extra credit card from his father's existing credit card company, and took his friends on a $30,000 spending spree, culminating in playing "Halo" on an Xbox with a couple of hookers in a Texas motel.

Police said they were alerted to the motel by a concerned delivery clerk, whom after delivering supplies of Dr Pepper, Fritos and Oreos had been asked by the kids where they could score some chicks and were willing to pay. They explained they had just made a big score at a "World of Warcraft" tournament and wanted to get some relaxation. On noting the boys age the delivery clerk informed the authorities. READ THE REST

According to the article, the boy wants to be a politician one day. He sounds like the real life Ferris Bueller in the making. Except Ferris wouldn't have been caught.
