The child, from Simpsonville, had driven overnight Sunday to meet the unknown male when he became lost and pulled up next to a police cruiser, Charleston police said in a statement. Officer Christopher Braun encountered the boy at about 12:30 a.m. Monday morning.
An 11-year-old South Carolina boy stole his brother's car and drove over 200 miles to meet an adult male that he communicated with on Snapchat, police said.
The child told Braun he had been driving for the last three hours and became lost after the GPS on his father's tablet, which was directing him to the male's address, stopped working.
