Police in Washington, D.C., are trying to determine how a teenage impostor managed to take a city bus for a joy ride, picking up passengers before crashing the vehicle into a tree. William Jackson, 19, somehow obtained a Metrobus driver uniform and faked his way behind the wheel of a bus at a depot in Bladensburg, Maryland. Police said Jackson took the bus Friday afternoon and followed its scheduled route, picking up several passengers along the way. Police said Jackson drove the unsuspecting, paying passengers for about 4 miles before crashing the bus into a tree. He then fled on foot before being apprehended by police. The passengers aboard the bus also fled. Jackson was arrested on charges of unauthorized use of a vehicle and fleeing an accident.
