CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WTVC-TV) - A 4-year-old boy, beer in hand, is accused of
stealing Christmas presents from his neighbors. It's a strange story, but also a
sad one.

April Wright is 21 years old and is going through a divorce with her husband who
is in jail. She says she is not sure how her 4-year-old managed to get out of
the house, open a beer, and steal the neighbors presents from under their tree.
Now she's just glad he's okay and says she won't let it happen again.

The child, Hayden Wright, was found around 1:45 am Tuesday, wandering the
streets of his neighborhood. In a police reports, officers said he was wearing a
little girl's dress and drinking a beer. The police report says the child had to
taken to the hospital to be treated for alcohol consumption.

April Wright said, "Biggest concern was him being out there, getting kidnapped,
getting run over, the alcohol, having to have his stomach pumped."

Wright says she woke up that night at 1:45 am and panicked when she found Hayden
was gone. She says she put safety devices on all the doors so her kids couldn't
get out, but Hayden was able to break the safety device off the doorknob and get
outside.

Once out, Wright says her four year old followed his father's footsteps and was
found on Blue Spruce Road, drinking.

"He runs away trying to find his father," she said. "He wants to get in trouble
so he can go to jail because that's where his daddy is."

The Hamilton County Sheriff's Office report says Hayden rang the doorbell a few
houses down and the neighbor answered, finding the child holding a partially
consumed 12-ounce beer.

Wright said, "He got it out of my father's cooler in the back and how he got it
open I don't understand because it was one of those tab beers."

But it doesn't stop there. The report said Hayden then snuck into a neighbor's
house through an unlocked front door, and stole five wrapped Christmas gifts.
One was a girl's brown dress which Hayden was wearing when police found him.

"Going to the neighbor's house and taking their presents, very embarrassing,"
said April.

She admits she was not just embarrassed, but scared, and rushed to the hospital
that night with Hayden. She said she tries to be a good mother and loves her
son, but now feels like a failure.

"Kids do things like this and it's out of your control, you can do the best you
can as a mother, everyone makes mistakes, it was an honest mistake," she said.

Wright did meet with child protective services today who told her she will get
to keep custody of Hayden.

I have already given away his hand in marriage to my friend's daughter - I know she'll love him. Freud says so.

(because he also likes to drink beer, make mischief and wear women's clothing, specifically crinolines)

Ahhh... It's stories like these that make you proud of your home town. At only four years old, little Hayden broke the child restraints off the door of his house, found a beer, managed to open it, broke into the neighbors' house, stole their presents, put on girls dress, and was out walking around in his neighborhood at about 2:00 in the dress, drinking the beer. That, my friends, is one bold, ingenious little dude.

It happened in a neighborhood called "Middle Valley", because it's a valley, in the middle - of something. We live in the "Valley & Ridge" physiographic province; so everything is valleys and ridges around here. Anyway, that kid's neighborhood is only about 5-6 miles away from where I'm sitting right now. It kind of makes me proud [sniff].
...but it seemed like such a good idea at the time...
