As the food deliveries piled up outside a Michigan home, a 6-year-old boy was determined to be the unlikely hungry culprit.

It started on Saturday, Jan 28, when Keith Stonehouse let his son Mason play with his phone before bed. That would set Stonehouse back hundreds of dollars, as Mason used his father’s Grubhub account to order from various restaurants.
