When police stopped a BMW towing a caravan in the north of England on Thursday afternoon, they were shocked at what they found in the driver’s seat.
Officers from North Yorkshire police were told a caravan had been stolen from a holiday site near Thirsk and was being towed away by a black BMW.
They had tracked the BMW, which was using cloned registration plates, travelling south on the A1.
About 45 minutes after the caravan was reported stolen, the vehicle was stopped on the M1, having left the A1 near Garforth.
Officers said they were “staggered” to find an 11-year-old boy sitting in the driver’s seat of the BMW.
