Utah Highway Patrol stopped the boy before he made it to California, but he still got to ride in the sports car upon his return home thanks to a local man who saw his story.
The businessman, Jeremy Neves of Orem, Utah, offered the boy — Adrian Zamarripa — a spin in a matte black, two-seater Huracan.
The family took up Neves on his offer to drive Adrian around the block on Tuesday, the day after he was returned home. He took turns sitting in his sister’s and mother’s laps while Neves drove.
„By taking him for a ride, I could bring his dream a little closer and show him that it’s possible,“ Neves, who owns a mobile phone company, Xcite Satellite, told CNN in an email. „After all, I was a lot like this kid growing up and I turned out alright!“ „
He took his parents‘ keys and drove
The boy told the Utah Highway Patrol that he fled his home in his parents‘ car after his mother told him she wouldn’t buy him a Lamborghini, the agency tweeted.
