Man followed by pig on a morning walk calls the cops, who assume he's drunk. But he's not

A man in Elyria, OH was walking home at 5:26am Saturday morning when he got spooked. Someone – or something – was following him. When he noticed it was a pig, he freaked out and called the police.

Of course the cops thought he was either really drunk or hallucinating. But he wasn’t. The frightened gentleman just didn’t like being followed by a pig.

The police ended up returning the animal, whose name is Zoey, back to its owner.

Phew. Close call. But the man survived the frightful morning without a scratch and lived to tell about it.
