TEN YEAR OLD BOY LEADS POLICE ON HIGH SPEED CHASE NEAR LAWRENCEBURG INDIANA

Aurora Indiana police reportedly engaged in a high-speed auto-chase at around 10 a.m. Thursday morning with a 10-year-old Indiana boy. The chase included a stretch along U.S. 50 near Cincinnati. The boy apparently took off in his parents' minivan before crashing the same into a utility pole after he swerved to miss stop strips that had been put out by cops. The boy was treated for minor injuries at a nearby hospital. He was then transferred to a Lawrenceburg, Indiana, juvenile detention center.

The chase spanned a length of about three-miles before the van collided with the utility pole. A motive for the boy's actions was still being investigated; however, the Aurora Police Chief told the AP that "the boy could face felony charges of auto theft and evading police".
