A chase in a stolen car with a baby on board. An 18-year-old young man has multiplied the offenses - forced roadblocks, misconceptions, speeding - after stealing a car he pretended to buy from a couple Tuesday evening in Canet-en-Roussillon (Pyrénées-Orientales ). While fleeing at the wheel of the vehicle, the thief did not realize that a one year old child was in the back, reports France Bleu Roussillon.

The parents warned the authorities. The gendarmerie, assisted by the national and municipal police, deployed a device to find the child. In order not to be arrested, the young man embarked on a chase for more than an hour. Intercepted, he was placed in police custody where he was still on Wednesday evening. The young man was to be brought to justice.

The baby was found safe and returned to his parents.
