9News crew put a stop to balaclava-wearing teen driver's joyride.
A group from 9News found themselves in the midst of a chaotic situation when they stumbled upon a teenager driving at high speeds in a stolen sports car near Logan, south of Brisbane. The young driver was wearing a balaclava, making it clear that he was up to no good. The reporter immediately notified the police, and the 9News car was just a few meters away from the suspect as he recklessly drove on the M1 and Logan Road at around 7am this morning.

As the events unfolded, it became apparent that this wasn't just a case of a teenager taking a joyride. The 17-year-old eventually fled to an Eight Mile Plains home, where the police finally caught up with him. He tried to blend in by changing his headgear and putting on a broad-brimmed hat, but there was no escaping the law this time. The police confiscated his phone and the cash he had on him before escorting him into a waiting van.

Meanwhile, the stolen car was taken for forensic testing, and it was discovered that it had been stolen from a family in Kuraby, Brisbane. The victim had not yet reported the incident to the police, but thanks to the timely call from 9News, they were able to take action. It was revealed that the teenager had broken into the family's home while they were asleep and taken their car.

Fortunately, the victim was relieved to have his car back in safe hands, and he expressed his gratitude to 9News. The suspect, on the other hand, has not yet been charged, but it is reported that he is a well-known repeat offender who often violates his bail conditions. This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of staying vigilant and reporting any suspicious activity to the authorities.
