Earlier this month, a 4-year-old boy called 911 in an attempt to send his “bad” mother to jail — for eating his ice cream. Responding officers confirmed the boy was, in fact, only reporting his mother over the stolen sweet treat. They returned to the family’s residence with fresh ice cream the following day.
