A 14-year old Florida boy went on a ”joy ride” Tuesday after he stole an unattended car left running at a gas station, deputies said.

The Manatee County Sheriff’s Office posted video of the pursuit that followed on its Facebook page Thursday.

Deputies said a driver pulled up to a Wawa station in Bradenton shortly after 10 p.m. and left the keys in the car with the engine running as he went inside the store.

When the man walked out of the store, he noticed someone was driving his car out of the parking lot, so he called 9-1-1.

Investigators say that about 50 minutes after the initial report, a Manatee County deputy informed dispatch that she was behind the stolen car and told them where she was located. Other deputies were able to get behind the stolen car while a sheriff’s helicopter, which recorded the pursuit, took off.

Deputies said the teen failed to stop for them, and they quit chasing him once they knew the helicopter was following the car.

The boy eventually parked the car in Palmetto, about five minutes from Bradenton, and started running. When he saw responding deputies, the teen was seen on the video raising his hands in the air and dropping to his knees.

Deputies took the 14-year-old into custody.
