A drunken teen allegedly crashed a stolen vehicle with an 11-year-old passenger inside, after flipping over on a highway in Arizona, according to media reports.

The incident happened around 1 a.m. Tuesday local time after police received a report of a wrong-way driver eastbound on I-40 in Flagstaff, Arizona Department of Public Safety (DPS) told ABC News.

A deputy spotted the vehicle crossing the median into oncoming lanes before correcting course, then speeding past 100 mph.

The white Chevrolet Silverado, reported stolen earlier from the Flagstaff Police Department, veered onto a guardrail before flipping multiple times and crashing into a tree.
