3 children steal a car and drive 1,000 km to see Istanbul

3 children stole a car from a dealership in Ordu province, and drove 1,000 km to Istanbul. After wandering through the Esenyurt district of Istanbul, they were finally detained in Zeytinburnu by a police team searching for them for a week, while the stolen vehicle was located in Bağcılar and returned to its owner. “We always see Esenyurt on social media, and we wanted to see it. We came and walked around here,” told to police one of the three minors, between 12 and 15 years old, all of them with several criminal records.
