Police in Oklahoma are working overtime, it turns out. Fact: A police officer was spotted driving a car with none other than... a donkey resting in the back.
How did a donkey get into a small police car?
Officer Kyle Kennan explains: "I was driving my car Tuesday morning and saw a donkey wandering in the southeast area of Norman [the capital of Cleveland County, Oklahoma]. I knew the donkey was valuable to its owner and decided to return it. My only option was to put it in the back seat of the privateer.".
The police station said, regarding the photo that went viral around the world: "Our officers constantly encounter unexpected things, and they are fulfilling their duty.".
But the donkey itself, it turns out, did not cooperate with Kenan's good intentions. It stuck its head out the window and even defecated inside the car, despite the short time the vehicle had taken from where it was to the nearest stop.
