7-year-old joyrider beats up Grandmother

Latarian Milton, the pint-sized auto thief who recently wrecked his Grandmother’s SUV is back in the news - this time for beating the poor lady up inside of a Wal-Mart, after she refused to buy him chicken wings. Can’t this woman get a break?Milton’s grandmother, Vikkita Stratford, told local news station WPBF that the 7-year-old took his mischievous activities to a new level Monday when she said he beat her up inside a Lake Park Wal-Mart. According to Stratford, the problem began when Milton asked his grandmother for some chicken wings. When she refused, Milton walked over to the counter and ordered them anyway. Stratford said that when she confronted him about it, Milton just snapped. “He just started hitting me — just started hitting me in front of the whole Wal-Mart. Every one in there was upset,” Stratford said. Stratford said that Milton hit her stomach, legs and “wherever he could reach me.”Riviera Beach police picked up Milton from his home and took him to an area hospital for a mental health evaluation Monday afternoon, WPBF reported. The 7-year-old can be held for up to 72 hours while he is evaluated by mental health officials. Stratford said that she believes Milton’s problems are due to a bad atmosphere with his parents.“I know what causes the behavior, cause all he’s ever seen was his parents do physical and abusive and verbal things, and I don’t want him to continue in this direction so I’m doing the best I can to get him the help,” she said.Of course this follow-up really has nothing to do with cars- but let’s really all hope that lil’ man gets some help.
