A 13-YEAR-OLD boy was behind the wheel of a car which was involved in a collision with five other vehicles, magistrates in Taunton heard this week.

The youth, who cannot be named for legal reasons, pleaded guilty on Monday to taking a Mitsubishi Shogun without the owner’s consent in an incident in Yeovil on October 20.

The court heard the Mitsibushi was badly damaged. The boy will be sentenced later this month.
