A 10-year-old boy in Chongqing was recently found by police riding an electric tricycle on the street, local media reported.

The boy's parents work in Chongqing, but he and his sister live elsewhere in Sichuan province with their grandparents. The boy, Xiaogang, and his sister, Xiaoying, came to Chongqing to help look after their 2-year-old younger brother during the summer.

On the day of the incident, the toddler requested some ice cream after the children's parents had left for work. Xiaogang decided to take his parents' electric tricycle to go buy ice cream, but his plan was thwarted when he was stopped by a patrolling police officer.

Back home, the officer spoke to the children's parents, reminding them to supervise their children over the summer vacation to prevent accidents from happening.
