Following an argument that ended with his mother confiscating his PlayStation, an 11-year-old boy in Cleveland, Ohio stole her 2013 Dodge Durango and went on a reckless joyride

He broke several traffic rules and was driving at speeds reaching up to 90m/h (roughly 140km/h). Police were in pursuit of him until he crashed into an SUV.

He was taken into custody at the Cuyahoga County Juvenile Detention Center and now faces possible felony charges.
