Dumas, Arkansas - A ten-year-old boy steals a school bus, leading police on a late-night chase through three south Arkansas counties.

Police say the Dumas School District reported the bus stolen just after eleven Friday night. Officers chased the suspect for more than forty miles before taking him into custody.

As a stolen Dumas School Bus flies down Highway 65 Friday night, dozens of officers from three counties, four towns and state police remain in hot pursuit.

Dumas School Officials had been closing up after their football game, around eleven, when they noticed lights coming from the bus yard and reported the vehicle stolen.

From there, the driver of the bus led police down Highway 65, all the way into Jefferson County. That’s despite road spikes state police set up, to try and slow down the bus.

(Radio Scanner) "Be advised, he missed them all. We're now coming into town. Speed's at 25 miles an hour."

Finally, as the bus pulls into Pine Bluff city limits, the driver slows down enough for a deputy to make the stop.

But, as officers approach, they’re surprised by who they find behind the wheel.

Police say the driver is a ten year old boy. He was immediately cuffed and taken into police custody, then later released to his parents.

Dumas School officials say the same boy had also been part of a group caught on camera trying to steal a bus back in September. It’s unclear what charges he will face.
