GRANT COUNTY, Wash. (WKRC) - Officers arrested a 12-year-old boy after he stole his grandfather's car and drove 160 miles across the state, eventually leading police on a "short pursuit" that ended with a PIT maneuver.

The Grant County Sheriff's Office (GCSO) announced on Wednesday afternoon that deputies had arrested a 12-year-old boy who first came on their radar when a police department over 160 miles away notified them that the child stole his grandfather's car.

The Issaquah Police Department believed that the 12-year-old had a connection to Moses Lake, which is located in Grant County, and told the sheriff's department he could be heading in that direction.

The GCSO reported deputies found the car at around 10:20 a.m. on Wednesday in a residential area of Moses Lake.

"The 12-year-old driver then led deputies on a short pursuit that was safely ended near Randolph Road and State Route 17 when a deputy applies a PIT maneuver to the stolen car," the GCSO said in a press release.

The Seattle Times said the 12-year-old drove a total of 161 miles before his encounter with the police.

The GCSO reported no injuries and said the damages done to the vehicles involved was "minimal."

The unnamed 12-year-old was arrested on suspicion of possession of a stolen vehicle and felony eluding.
