All parents deserve a break so when these North Carolina parents thought their teen sons were at an older siblings’ for a night, they didn’t think anything of it, until New Year’s Eve.
When the parents turned on the nightly news and saw video of some kids who robbed a local store of thousands of dollars of computer equipment , the teens looked familiar. Unfortunately for the teens, their parents recognized them and actually turned them in to police!
The 14 and 16-year-old brothers were supposed to be staying with an older sibling the evening of the incident. Instead, the teens, along with three other friends, had burglarized a nearby Tech Boyz, costing the store owners thousands of dollars in property damage and missing property. Rather than covering up for their kids, the parents called police and turned the boys in.
“I’m just glad the parents decided to do the right thing,” said Jesse Hill, co-owner of Tech Boyz, who provided the surveillance video to ABC11.

The break-in happened around 3:30 a.m. Monday, and showed the teens taking off with laptops, cell phones, and other items.The incident lasted less than a minute, and one of nine cameras also captured the teens racing off into a neighborhood behind the store.
Police said the parents told detectives that their sons were supposed to be staying with an older sibling that evening. The boys said they decided to go out with friends, and gave into peer pressure.
