MOUNTAIN CITY, TN (WBIR) - A Tennessee police officer has been fired after displaying heavy force in an attempt to rid a Dollar General Store of a squirrel. The incident occurred last Thursday in Mountain City, when according to police documents, now-former Officer Jody Putnam found himself at the right place at the right time. Or the wrong place at the wrong time. Documents state that Putnam happened to be inside the Dollar General Store at the same time employees noticed a squirrel. That's when Putnam sprang into action, discharging his firearm at the squirrel inside the store. Unsuccessful, he moved on to option 2: pepper spray.

A few peanuts strategically placed could probably lure the squirrel outside the store. They love peanuts.

My second ex-wife could have talked the squirrel out of the store. She was a bit nutty anyway.

Geez, big bad cop going after a harmless little squirrel. I’d have fired him on the spot, too.

It was all a misunderstanding. He thought it was a dog dressed as a squirrel.
To: Monkey Face
Obviously the squirrel knew there was a nut in the store.............
