A 12-YEAR-OLD boy and a girl aged 10 climbed into a car and started the engine before being spotted.
Luckily the woman who owned the car, parked in Coleridge Crescent, Worthing, challenged the children and got them to step out of the car before any attempts to drive it.
The pair stayed with the woman until police arrived and arrested them just after 7pm on Monday, May 18.
Police are still investigating the incident and believe the keys may have been stolen from the woman's house.
