Police said the boy stole his brother's car with the intention of living "with a stranger whom he met on Snapchat," said police spokesman Charles Francis. to the WCSC.

"When he lost the GPS signal, he lost the address and he could not retrieve it because Snapchat's messages disappear or are deleted after reading," said Francis. The boy gave the officer the name and number of his father and the latter called his father at the very moment his father was about to report the son's disappearance to the police. The father drove to Charleston to pick up the boy.
