Woman in trouble for using niece, 6, as driver

PITTSBURGH - Police say a woman endangered her six-year-old niece by having the girl back the woman's car out of a tight parking spot, wrecking two other cars in the process.

Fifty-five-year-old Rebecca Beatty and her attorney have not returned calls on the charges she waived to Beaver County Court on Tuesday.

Police charged Beatty in June after she picked up her niece from a dance program at Ambridge Area High School in Beaver, 54km northwest of here.

The Beaver County Times reported on Wednesday that Beatty found another car parked so close that she couldn't get in her vehicle. Police say that's when she had her niece back the car out.

Police say the child hit a parked car, pushing it over a curb until it hit another car parked on the street.
