Normally police foot-chases are either very exciting or very short-lived but those are the human pursuits – this is a chase of a different feather.
We go to Jonesboro, Arkansas where police were called to an apartment complex to remove a trespassing chicken… I’ll give you a moment to process that, yes, a trespassing chicken.
The chicken apparently refused to move from a resident’s porch, so police were called to the scene of the unsolicited roosting. One officer (Patrol Officer Nathan Swindle) ended up in a hilarious chase which was captured on his bodycam.
A baton was used (to dislodge the clucker from under a car) but the officers stopped short of using the pit maneuver or deploying stop sticks to rustle up the rascally, rogue rooster.
The free-range, fugitive fowl ran like a chicken with it’s head… well… you know… which may remind you of the training sequence in the movie ‘Rocky’ – all that was needed was a crochety old boxing trainer yelling, “You catch the chicken you can catch greased lightning!”
Eventually the chicken was corralled (caged) and charged with resisting and taken back to its coop.
It should be happy it wasn’t cuffed, stuffed and seasoned with 11 herbs and spices.
