CHICAGO — A 14-year-old aspiring police officer donned a uniform, walked into a Chicago police station and managed to get an assignment — patrolling in a squad car for five hours before he was detected, police said Sunday.

The boy did not have a gun, never issued any tickets and didn’t drive the squad car, said Deputy Superintendent Daniel Dugan.

Dugan said the boy looks older than 14 and was motivated by a desire to be an officer. The boy once took part in a Chicago program for youths interested in policing, police said.
