GRAND ISLAND, Neb. (AP) – Authorities say a juvenile has escaped custody while at a truck stop in Grand Island.

Hastings television station KHAS reports (http://bit.ly/SZUcDR) that Grand Island police say the boy was being taken from Madison in northeast Nebraska to Hall County in south-central Nebraska on Tuesday. While at the truck stop on East U.S. Highway 30, he asked to go to the bathroom. He soon escaped and headed toward a nearby railroad yard.

A Hall County dispatcher said early Wednesday that she had no information on whether the boy had been caught. Grand Island police didn’t answer a call to a nonemergency number.
