A 12-year-old is in big trouble after police say he stole a school bus and started driving it through Bangor, Maine.

St. Germain waited until the bus stopped at an intersection, got out of his vehicle and onto the bus, taking control of it, the post said. Police have not said how he got behind the wheel of the bus.

St. Germain was awarded a “challenge coin”, which is given out as a token of appreciation to citizens for acts of kindness or unselfishness.

The boy, whose name was not disclosed because he is a juvenile, was charged with unauthorized use and operating without a license, Bangor police Sgt. Tim Cotton said in an email.

The video shot by St Germain and his girlfriend was also uploaded on the department’s Facebook, although much of the sound was removed. I will say that he sounded like Seth Rogan throughout most of the play by play’.
