    GLADSTONE, Mich. (AP) - Gladstone police say a 10-year-old boy stole a car and crashed it into a house, a stop sign and a tree.

    Police in the Upper Peninsula community say the boy drove the vehicle around the block and then into the home. After the crash Thursday evening, they say the boy then backed the car into a stop sign and eventually a tree.

    The Daily Press of Escanaba and WLUC-TV say he was taken into custody and later released to his parents.
