PONTIAC, MI -- Oakland County officials say a homeless man hijacked an unlocked Star EMS ambulance from the emergency entrance to McLaren Oakland Hospital in Pontiac about 11 p.m. Sunday.

Officials tell the Detroit News the 51-year-old planned to drive the ambulance to the Booby Trap, an adult entertainment club on 8 Mile in Detroit that featured topless dancing until it closed multiple years ago.

Sheriff's officials say the ambulance was unlocked and one of the medics left their cell phone inside, which dispatch used to track the suspect in Sterling Heights, where he was arrested.

Oakland County sheriff's officials say the man is homeless, has mental health issues and is known through previous encounters with law enforcement.
