Zoe’s car soon crashed into another car, which had an infant in the backseat, police said. There were no injuries reported.
The juvenile in Zoe’s car was taken back to DeKalb County by a relative.
Zoe allegedly told troopers he fled because of a suspended license.
His charges include fleeing police, leaving the scene of an accident, reckless conduct and many more, the paper reported.
