Police: Ill. teen steals, crashes squad car after being arrested for leaving scene of accident
PEKIN, Ill., Jun. 3, 2006
(AP) A handcuffed teenager told police he was just trying to get home and get to bed when he stole and crashed a squad car after being arrested for leaving the scene of an accident.
"We don't have a lot of empty (jail) beds here, but we found one for him," Tazewell County Chief Deputy Dick Ganschow said.
Police say Joshua Hall, 17, of Manito, was belted in the back seat of the squad car when he somehow wriggled free, crawled through a small sliding door into the front seat, then drove away in handcuffs before crashing through two fence rows, a gate and into a row of trees.
