Police Chase Ends When Pigs Capture Car Thief
May 23, 2008
Before my Law Enforcement friends get upset at me about a derogatory name calling let me tell you what happened in Germany. Seems a car thief was captured after he fled from a stolen car into nearby woods and into the middle of a herd of wild hogs.
Police in Schwerin say the 18-year-old abandoned a stolen SUV he was driving Thursday after failing to shake off a chasing patrol car by driving into a field.
Police nabbed his passenger immediately. But they say the driver initially got away by running into nearby woods.
Officers then heard the fugitive shouting for help – he had run into a herd of angry wild boars that were keen to protect their young.
Police freed the man from the boars and took him into custody.

A strange story for sure but far from boar ing 
Moose Droppings is a place that chronicles my journey, I’ll explore new places and ideas I’ll learn new things and I’ll teach the things I’ve learned to others. Join me on the adventure and hopefully it will help you in your outdoor endeavors.
That’s too funny! It just doesn’t pay to run from the cops. I gotta give the guy credit for having a few brain cells – I mean, at least he realized it’d be better to take his chances with the police than the wild hogs.
