Dog's joyride ends with crash into pole

An Oklahoma dog was finally found hours after knocking a truck into gear and crashing into a pole Thursday.

Myles Radar said he was paying for gas at a station near 177th West and Highway 412 while his dog, Emmett, was in the cab of his truck.

While Radar was inside, the dog managed to knock the truck into gear. Radar watched it roll across the street and crash into a pole.

When he opened the door, the dog was terrified and took off running. It took hours for him to find Emmett.

Radar says the truck is pretty beat up, but he's just glad to have Emmett back. He and his girlfriend just saved him from the pound last week.
