APD: Teens Arrested After Attempting To Steal Bait Car

From KOAT-TV.com - ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- Police said two teens were arrested after trying to steal a bait car trap set by authorities Friday night. Authorities said a 14-year-old boy and 18-year-old Jaguar Fresquez were looking for a ride to a party and found the bait car. "I don't know what parent would want to see their child commit a crime, let alone the fact of embarrassment," said Sgt. Donny Olvera, of the Albuquerque Police Department. "This little joyride that they did, it's going to cost them." Two minutes into the surveillance video inside the bait car, police said Fresquez made an ironic comment. "At one point, (Fresquez) stated, 'God, I hope this isn't a bait car,'" Olvera said. Fresquez also said on the video, "I've never stolen a car from a parking lot before." Police said when they deactivated the car, the 14-year-old was arrested right away, but Fresquez led officers on a brief foot chase. Read more

I think those teens who stole the bait cars are considered as a troubled teen because the behavior they have shown is not to that of a normal teen. I believe that they could have been doing the crime at home but their parents were not that effective enough in controlling the situation that is why their condition worsened. Parents should be vigilant in taking care of their offspring.
