Calgary police have arrested an eighteen year old male after he got impatient waiting for a driver and drove the bus himself instead.

A Calgary Transit driver pulled into the Dalhousie Station at just after 11 p.m. on Thursday for a short break.

The lone passenger on the bus, an 18 year old male, decided not to wait for the driver and drove the shuttle bus out of the station himself.

The teen then drove the bus all the way to the northwest quadrant of the city where he then hit a dead end.

He fled the vehicle but was caught later by a police K-9 unit.

He is facing a number of charges related to the incident.

Police are also looking into whether alcohol played a factor in the young man's actions.
