A kangaroo on the loose was caught by police after it was spotted running rampant in an apartment complex in Tampa, Florida, on Thursday morning.
The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office said in a Facebook post that officers received a 911 call from a person claiming to have seen a kangaroo hopping around their apartment complex in north Tampa.
“911 do you need police, fire, or medical,” the dispatcher is heard asking in the released audio from police.
“I guess police. There’s a kangaroo in my apartment complex,” the female caller is heard replying.
