It was just before half past four on Thursday afternoon that the police had to pull out to stop the 14-year-old driving.

Then a private person had alerted the police.

- I don't know how long he drove around the city centre, says Christina Hallin at the police in the Bergslagen region.

Suspected of illegal driving

The boy was behind the wheel of the car when the police managed to locate him.

- The patrol stopped him then and he stopped immediately, says Christina Hallin.

The boy is now suspected of illegal driving and the case has been handed over to social services.

- He is under 15 years of age and not of legal age, and then it becomes a matter for social services, says Christina Hallin.
