15-year-old hijacks bus and drives through Bremen
A 15-year-old boy has caused quite a stir in Bremen. He took possession of a public bus without permission and drove it through the city. But nobody suspected anything for a long time.
Late on Monday evening, the teenager pretended to be a trainee from a bus company to a bus driver, according to the police. Thanks to his impressive knowledge of details, he accompanied the driver on his tour, was introduced as a new assistant when the driver changed and stayed on the bus.
After the tour, the driver and his teenage companion left the bus, but the 15-year-old returned and continued the journey. At a bus stop, he invited unsuspecting passengers to join him, who thought they were looking at a regular bus driver, according to the police.
Autistic teenager "with an enthusiasm for vehicles"
However, the real bus drivers noticed the theft and alerted the police. Eventually, the 15-year-old and his passengers were stopped. No one was injured - but the bus did suffer some damage to the paintwork and "unwanted undergrowth on its bodywork". The all-too-young bus driver, who is autistic, was handed over to his father. According to the police, he wanted to "live out his enthusiasm for vehicles and technology".
