Three young boys got quite a scare as they were arrested at gunpoint for hot-wiring and stealing a car.
Newburgh Heights, Ohio, police released bodycam footage or the incident, which began with a high-speed chase and ended after the car crashed into a home.
The boys reportedly learned how to hot-wire the car by watching a YouTube video.
The 11-year-old was the driver, whose skills were called “crappy” by the arresting officer. All three boys were released to their parents pending appearance in juvenile court.
