‘That’s nuts!’ Moment Louisiana sheriff’s deputies are attacked by furious pet SQUIRREL after pulling animal’s owner over for traffic stop
Two police officers were caught off-guard when they were attacked by a pet squirrel as they tried to arrest his owner on Monday.
According to the Livingston Parish Sheriff's Office, two deputies were wrapping up a traffic stop east of Baton Rouge, Louisiana Monday night when they went to arrest an unidentified tow-truck driver.
But when they searched the vehicle, a 'pet feral squirrel' leaped onto the back of one of the deputies, the Sheriff's Office wrote on Facebook.
As he ran in circles trying to get the squirrel off his back, jumping and grabbing at the rodent, his partner could be seen in video taken from the sheriff's car trying to swat at the animal, but he moves to different parts of the man's body as he tries to run away.
The deputies were eventually able to get the rodent back into his cage without anyone - not even the squirrel - getting hurt, the Sheriff's Office said.
