Happy Ending After Police Respond To A Baby Squirrel Threat

A baby squirrel is in police custody in Germany after they responded to a call from a man who said the squirrel was chasing him. The Police promptly adopted the baby squirrel as their mascot and named him Karl-Friedrich.

A man in Karlsruhe called police Thursday because he was being pursued by a squirrel. The rodent was still chasing the man as police arrived but then fell asleep. It was taken to an animal shelter.#animalstories #squirrel #Karlsruhe

„Hilfe, ich werde von einem #Eichhörnchen verfolgt!“ Eventuell mit diesen Worten richtete sich am Do, gegen 8:00 Uhr früh, ein Mann an den Karlsruher Polizeinotruf.
