Police allege the boy drove recklessly through several suburbs before the Commodore eventually came to a stop on the South Western Highway in Fairbridge after running over a tyre deflation device.
The Southern River boy has been charged with stealing a motor vehicle, reckless driving to escape pursuit and failing to stop.
He is due to appear before the Perth Children’s Court today.
