15-year-old kidnapped a bus and took passengers
He stops at the bus stop and picks up passengers: a teenager drives a city bus through Bremen. Previously, he posed as a trainee. The police eventually stop the irregular ride of the boy.
A 15-year-old boy caused a stir in Bremen as a bus driver - and even took passengers with him. According to the police, he drove through the city "as if he were an experienced bus driver". On Monday evening, the teenager presented himself to a bus driver as a trainee for a bus company, the police reported. The boy had an impressive knowledge of details, it said in the message. He even knew the name of the boss. He then accompanied the driver on his tour. At the driver change, he was introduced as the new temporary worker and stayed in the bus.
After the tour, the driver and his teenage companion initially left the bus. However, the 15-year-old returned and continued the journey. At a bus stop, he picked up unsuspecting passengers who believed they had a regular bus driver in front of them, as the police reported.
The real bus drivers noticed the theft and alerted the police. The 15-year-old was eventually stopped with passengers after a quick location. No one was injured - but the bus suffered some paint damage and "unwanted foliage on its body".
The too young bus driver, an autistic person, was handed over to his father. According to police reports, he wanted to "fulfill his passion for vehicles and technology".
The boy's unauthorized bus drive took him through various streets of Bremen. Despite being just a teenager, he managed to convincingly portray an experienced bus driver to the passengers in Bremen.
