A man who allegedly stole a California Highway Patrol car, drove it onto a college campus and used it to commandeer a school bus was arrested Friday after students on the bus jumped him, authorities and witnesses said.<\/p>\n
The 35-year-old Vallejo man was taken into custody by Sacramento police.<\/p>\n
A CHP officer was investigating a two-car crash on Highway 50 at about 12:30 p.m. when one driver jumped into the patrol car and drove off, the agency reported.<\/p>\n
The thief drove the cruiser to California State University, Sacramento, where he used it to pull over a bus containing 10 student government participants from San Joaquin Delta College.<\/p>\n
The bus driver, Mary Speck, thought the man was an officer.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe got a little aggressive and he demanded that I get out of the bus now, so he jumped in and took off with my bus,\u201d .<\/p>\n
The man drove the bus off campus and onto Avenue J, where authorities managed to pull him over.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen he stopped one of the guys grabbed him and choked him. When he choked him, I just started hitting him, took the keys, turned it off and threw the car in park,\u201d San Joaquin Delta College student Marsha Fernando told the station.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
