In a tale that sounds more like a cartoon than real life, officers from the Tacoma Police Department stumbled upon a suspect hiding in none other than a chicken coop! This unexpected turn of events began when local residents reported seeing a man darting through yards, prompting a police chase in the 3600 block of Portland Avenue. Never underestimate the tenacity of a K9—Odin, the police dog, tracked down the elusive suspect with flying colors, proving once again that he’s not just a pretty pup!
Imagine the look on the suspect’s face as he realized he’d be apprehended among a flock of confused chickens. Talk about a foul escape plan! In a delightful twist, the chickens came away from the encounter unharmed, unlike the suspect, who couldn’t wing his way out of this one. It’s refreshing to see both law enforcement and some feathered friends getting the happy ending they deserve, even if it involved a bit of unplanned clucking chaos.
