‘Mom, I’ve literally lost my car’: Teen still without car for week after forgetting where he parked

A teenager in Bristol is making headlines after losing his car for nearly a week when he parked it near a festival but forgot where it was located. Nineteen-year-old Connor Spear, whose friends call him “fun time Frankie,” said he was attending the Tokyo World Festival when he left his vehicle in the lot next to where the festivities were happening but after the event, he couldn’t remember where he left the car. According to BBC, Spear’s mother Sally Jeffery said, "He was due home on the Monday but when I managed to get hold of him he said 'Mom, I've literally lost my car.’”The teen and his friends were able to find a ride home. When Spears and his mother returned to the lot, however, their search was futile. Jeffrey decided to post on Facebook to see if anyone noticed her son’s car and might know where it was located. That’s when they received a call from a man saying he rode his bike past a vehicle just like the one Spears owned. "About 10 minutes after I put a Facebook post up, a man called to say he cycles past the car every day on his way to work," said Jeffery.According BBC, the man who called them had met Spear after the festival and helped them find a ride home. Thankfully Spear’s car is "as he left it,” but he has to wait until the next weekend to pick it up.
