My father use to put me and my 6 brothers and sisters in the back of the pickup when we were kids, never lost a one of us, today he would face prosecution for doing the same thing, what this world coming too? I would of liked to have know the age of the kid, was it a young child or a teenager or would have done so just for kicks & giggles given the opportunity?
@localyocal This man put the child in the TOOL BOX, not the back of the truck.
