"We didn't take one of our own to jail:" Loudon Co. deputies searching for pig's owner

LOUDON COUNTY, Tenn. (WVLT) -- The Loudon County Sheriff's Office is asking for a little help to return a lost pig to its owner.

The sheriff's office took to Facebook, posting a picture of a pig saying, "Before you ask, 'No', we did not take one of our own to jail!"

Before you ask, “No”, we did not take one of our own to jail!
But, we did find this little delinquent pig out staging a one swine road block on Highway 11 in Philadelphia. And after a short foot pursuit, Deputy Cody Bengel, and some helpful bystanders, were able to take this little piggy into custody and safely transport her to the Loudon County Animal Shelter.
 
If this is your lost pig, and you want to bond her out, contact the Loudon County Animal Shelter for more information.

They continued, "But, we did find this little delinquent pig out staging a one swine road block on Highway 11 in Philadelphia."
