Arkansas girl, 11, pays $1,300 for cab ride to Florida to meet boy

Arkansas police say an 11-year-old girl paid a cabbie $1,300 to take her to meet a boy in Florida, but that authorities caught up with the runaway in Georgia after her parents reported her missing.

The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported Friday that cellphone records show the girl hailed the cab Dec. 5 in Little Rock after talking to a 16-year-old Jacksonville, Florida, boy she met two years ago. The boy said he didn’t know the girl’s plans.

The cab company said the girl wore heavy makeup and appeared to be 17 or 18 and that the driver wouldn’t face discipline. The girl’s father said he has confiscated her cellphone and makeup.

Bryant police say the girl stole $1,300 from her grandmother to pay the fare. The grandmother isn’t pressing charges.

What the problem with Greyhound?? Geez spoiled little *expletive*

Nah, if she was spoiled she wouldnt have stolen the money. It would have been given to her for that purpose. If that'd happened Id say the parents/grandmother deserve to lose the money.

As for whats wrong with greyhound? Nothing. I got from Sudbury to Vancouver for $136 with them in 2009. I doubt the prices have jumped that much. This kid is bad with money, though to be fair most 11 year olds probably are if given the chance.
