Officers chased down a runaway chicken in Tampa, Florida, footage published by the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office shows.
After receiving a late-night call on June 24 notifying the sheriff’s department of a chicken trapped beneath a vehicle, officers discovered the answer to the age old question “why did the chicken cross the road?”
The sheriff’s office answered the question in an X post, writing, “To give our deputies a workout!”
