Accident – Death – Obituary News : ## Escaped Pig Leads New Jersey Police on a Hilarious Chase
In a rather amusing turn of events, an escaped pig named “Albert Einswine” caused quite a commotion in New Jersey earlier this week, leading police officers on a 30-minute chase that covered a quarter-mile distance. The incident took place in the New Sharon section of Deptford Township, captivating the attention of both locals and social media users.
The humorous escapade came to light when the Deptford Township Police Department shared the story on their social media platforms. In a Facebook post, the department playfully remarked, “Sometimes the jokes just write themselves.” Accompanying the post was a heartwarming image of the 4-year-old pig, Albert Einswine, smiling alongside the victorious officers who managed to capture him. The photo showcased the officers holding the pig on a leash, highlighting the light-hearted nature of the situation.
The police department further revealed that through the use of de-escalation techniques and the latest technology, officers were ultimately able to apprehend the mischievous pig. In a tongue-in-cheek statement, the department jokingly added, “Mr. Einswine was released on his own recognizance,” adding a touch of humor to the incident.
To provide a more visual account of the incident, the police department also shared a video on their Facebook page, depicting one of the officers struggling to capture the elusive pig. In the footage, the officer is seen attempting multiple times to secure the pig with a leash, only for the agile animal to skillfully evade his grasp. Throughout the video, the laughter of the other officers can be heard, emphasizing the lightheartedness of the situation.
Detective Sgt. Bob Jones, who was involved in the chase, shared additional insights on the incident. In an interview with WPVI News, he mentioned, “The video doesn’t show the whole thing. We had to chase the pig for a quarter mile. They’re faster than they look.” Sgt. Jones further confessed, “He got pretty far for what it was. I don’t know where he was going to go.”
Albert Einswine’s adventure reportedly began when he escaped from a nearby farm. The pig’s owner arrived at the scene after the police successfully captured the spirited animal. With the pig safely back in their possession, the owner promptly returned Albert Einswine to his farm, marking the end of this hilarious and light-hearted incident.
The story of the escaped pig and the subsequent police chase has undoubtedly brought a smile to the faces of many. As the video and images continue to circulate on social media, it serves as a reminder that even in the midst of serious and challenging times, moments of laughter and unexpected encounters can brighten our days..
