According to the Associated Press, police officers in Midland, Texas were led on a peculiar chase on a rural highway after multiple witnesses reported seeing a kangaroo running around. Even stranger was the fact that it was apparently someone’s pet kangaroo that had escaped, which makes me wonder if pet kangaroos are something that is common in Texas. If so, that’s kind of cool, Texas.
But until I figure out how to get a pet kangaroo, here’s the police camera footage of the chase, complete with “How the hell do we stop a kangaroo that’s running on a highway?” driving tactics by the officers.
