YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

New Jersey cops were forced to tackle a 200-pound runaway pot-bellied pig named Pumba after the hefty hog broke out of a Gloucester County farm, according to police.

Pics posted on Facebook by the Washington Township Police Department show officers wrestling the porky escapee and getting him onto a waiting truck.

Pumba snuck out through an open gate on Friday.

“PUMBA the 200 Lb potbelly pig has been safely returned to his farm,” the department said in the post. “Apparently, a small child left the pasture gates open. Nice work by our officers — Marc Wolfe, Frank Cicalese and Victor Rossi.”

Pumba’s owner was surprised that his pig got loose at all.
