In a mad dash, an 11-year old English boy ran away from his mother at a shopping mall and headed straight to the Manchester Airport. His attempt was quite successful, making it all the way to Rome without a ticket or passport.

Liam Corcoran boarded his flight by mingling with families while headed through the security lines. But he didn’t make it outside Fiumicino Airport. Corcoran remained on the plane when it landed and headed directly back to Manchester, and his worried mother.

More on the runaway boy can be seen at Huffington Post.
