No one was injured, but two young boys learned a lesson after taking their parents’ pickup truck for a joyride Thursday morning.

Haldimand County OPP were contacted by an employee at the Main Street North Tim Hortons location in Jarvis after a pickup truck travelled over the curb and into the field just before 7 a.m. Thursday.

The employee went to check on the occupants and found an eight-year-old in the driver’s seat and his six-year-old brother sitting next to him.

The investigation determined the boys decided to take the pickup truck from their home and head to Tim Hortons for breakfast. The eight-year-old lost control in the drive-thru area, travelled over the curb and into the field, where the vehicle became stuck though no damage to the vehicle was reported.
