Well, at least he was getting some exercise like his mom wanted.
You probably shouldn’t leave your keys inside the vehicle, because a kid may just stroll on by and steal it, and that’s exactly what happened when an 11-year-old stole a cement truck from a local contractor. When cops pulled over the truck for speeding, the truck took off, hitting the cop car and starting a high-speed chase.
“It’s certainly not your normal traffic stop, not your normal chase,” Dodge County Sheriff Scott Rose told KTTC.
The sheriff says the kid reached speeds of up to 70 miles an hour, and it seems like he was having the time of his life while committing the crime.
“I betcha he drove around town 6 or 7 different times,” resident Troy Flatness said. “He was smiling, hooting and hollering…he was having a good time.”
Helicopters were actually called in to keep tabs on the tiny thief. The truck eventually came to a halt, but the kid wasn’t done yet, as he took off running, before eventually being caught and arrested. The kid was taken to a juvenile detention center and has been charged.
