Law enforcement officers and the public in Washington state came together Sunday to take a rare hazard off the roads: Runaway zebras.
But despite successfully corralling three of them after they bust loose near North Bend, on the eastern outskirts of Seattle, one is still on the run.
Trooper Rick Johnson, public information officer for Washington State Patrol District 2 in King County, said four zebras got loose on Interstate 90 near the North Bend exit.
He posted pictures of the animals as three still roamed free, before troopers and the public came together to secure their capture. “This is a first for me and all [State Patrol] troopers involved,” he wrote. “Crazy!”
He said the animals escaped while their owner stopped to secure their trailer. The privately-owned animals were being taken to Montana.
South Fork regular Jon-Erick Anes told NBC affiliate KING of Seattle that he thought the zebras were part of an elaborate prank.
