Police in Oregon issued a "verbal warning" to a cat reportedly seen armed with a gun-shaped stick.
Newport Oregon Police Department shared a photo of a black and white cat perched in a tree with its paw draped over a stick that appeared to resemble an automatic rifle.
Officers responded to the scene and were ultimately able to determine the cat did not pose any real threat.
"Reports of an armed cat this morning were unfounded," police said. "The feline was contacted by our canine and was determined to be in possession of a non-lethal branch."
The officers ended the tongue-in-cheek post by stating the cat had been apprehended and charged with several offenses.
"The cat was given a verbal warning for posing with what could be mistaken as an assault rifle while wearing poor camouflage attire," police said.

But yet this five year old girl was suspended from school because she picked up a small twig that some a$$inine teacher said it looked like a gun.

What? Did this crazyness happen? Or is it more fake news? It’s getting to a point where I don’t know what to believe.

Always great when a cop has a sense of humor.
I once called the police because a donut from a convenience store gave off a strong, foul odor, once I bit into it and pierced the chocolate coating.
The police and I figured out it was probably mold (yes, I did feel a little silly) and not product tampering. But they removed the product from the shelves and sent it to a lab to be sure.
The cop told me: “Seriously, though... don’t get your donuts from a convenience store. We’re experts, and there’s a reason we always hang out at the Dunkin’ Donuts.”
