Synopsis:
Two good-natured but rebellious young boys (James Freedson-Jackson and Hays Wellford) stumble across a cop car hidden in a secluded glade and decide to take it for a quick joyride, but their decision unleashes the ire of a troubled small town sheriff (Bacon), and soon the children are caught in a deadly, high-speed game of cat and mouse.
