ALBANY, GA. (AP) -- Albany police are looking for a burglary suspect who made off with one of their police cars during a chase.

Authorities say they were chasing Frederick Thomas after reports of a burglary at One Stop Food Store Tuesday.

During the chase, police say Thomas doubled back and hopped into a police cruiser that had the keys still in it, and took off.

A tracking device installed on the cruiser helped authorities find it a little while later, but they didn't locate Thomas.

Albany Police are investigating whether any policies were violated by the officer who left the keys in the car.
