Tiny tearaway's mini crimewave

A seven-year-old went on a mini crimewave in a shopping centre in Germany - using a go-kart as his getaway car.

First the boy pinched a playmate's dad's 500cc motorised kart and raced round to the local mall in Georgsmarienhuette, north west Germany.

Then he went on a three hour shoplifting spree loading a trailer with toys before one victim called the police.

"It's amazing he got away with for so long. Maybe he was so small he slipped under the CCTV," said one shopper.
