Minnesota Boy Takes a Cement Truck on a Joyride
A Minnesota boy is in trouble for taking a truck out on a joyride.
FOX’s Dave Anthony reports:
He was the talk of Dodge Center:
(Man) “Everybody was out with their cameras, it looked like a parade.”
Watching an 11-year-old boy ride around in a stolen cement truck:
(Man) “Smiling, hooting, and hollering, he was having a good time.”
But it was a challenge for Dodge County Minnesota Sheriff Scott Rose:
(Rose) “Certainly not your normal traffic stop, not your normal chase.”
Especially since the boy drove the cement truck 70 miles an hour on a highway:
(Rose) “We had the state patrol helicopter follow the vehicle, so we could safely follow the vehicle until it actually stopped.”
The chase lasted an hour, finally stopping at a dead end with two squad cars damaged in the process.
The boy was taken to juvenile detention:
(Man) “I talked to his dad, he wasn’t very happy.”
