A 13-year-old school-boy went on a 3 km joyride, colliding with 12 other vehicles and knocking over two utility poles before stopping.

He got behind the wheels of the bus at a terminal in Beiyuan, Beijing. He stopped only after he destroyed the window near the driver's seat.

The boy was said to have driven the bus away after the driver got off to use a toilet near the terminal. Cops were now looking for his parents.
