PONTIAC, Mich. — A 51-year-old man is in custody after allegedly stealing an ambulance to drive to a topless bar.
The ambulance was left with the keys in the ignition and running as EMTs unloaded a patient into McLaren Hospital around 11 p.m. Sunday. It was gone when they returned, the Detroit News reports.
Police used an EMT’s cellphone left inside the ambulance to track its location, and found it moving slowly down a street. The driver told police he was heading to the Booby Trap Bar. The address matched that of the King of Diamonds strip club.
He is expected to face auto theft charges.
