SAVE MONEY ON TRAVEL DEALS

A woman called police Thursday morning to say her son, who doesn't have a license, had taken off in her Jeep in protest of having his cell phone privileges revoked, the Globe and Mail reported.

Staff Sgt. Mike Tarini told the newspaper witnesses saw the unidentified boy doing some "pretty scary" driving.

"He was pulling doughnuts, he was going at high speeds, turning sharply, causing the vehicle to be operated on two wheels", Tarini said.

Tarini said after he called off the pursuit, another officer suggested Tarini call the boy on his cell phone. He did, and the youth answered

"And then he puts me on hold", Tarini said.

After the youth finished his other call, he gave Tarini enough information for several police cars to locate him, the report said.

The boy faces six criminal charges and several traffic offenses. He was released into the custody of his parents.
