Dropped it by a Chinese restaurant’

Don’t let all the jokes distract you. They weren’t chasing a chicken, they were chasing a dangerous nutcase that needs to be in an institution for the criminally insane.

[Larry Lucido]

JUDGE: The charge here is theft of frozen chickens. Are you the defendant?

DEFENDANT: No, sir, I’m the guy who stole the chickens.

[Larry Lucido]

Out of fairness, they would probably respond to cattle rustling. Just think of a chicken as a steer without the horns.

then the yolks in his hand...IF that’s a yoke.

[Qwapisking]

well for decades cops have chased donuts so may be they are moving in a different direction?

I once looked at old records of people in TN state prisons.

Chicken Thief would get you 364 days of labor.

[Savage Beast]

Good! Nobody likes a chicken thief.

BTW, did the chicken identify as a parrot perchance?

[Chickensoup]

KFC?

“911, what is your emergency?”

[ViLaLuz]

I had an ex pull stunts like that. He was stuck at 5 years old.

[ladyjane]

Oh that is bad.

[Tom Tetroxide]

Don’t forget the clown car!

Was Larry Bird involved in this in any way?

[roving]

He broke a restraining order.

[Clay Moore]

Wow, the yokes just write themselves.

[sit-rep]

well hopefully they catch him before he starts choking the chicken!!

[bunkerhill7]

Which came first, the chicken or the yegg?

[Max in Utah]

Bodycam footage shows the man hiding in bushes as police approached him at gunpoint.

"Ain't nobody here but us chickens!"

Sounds like a Florida man moved to Washington State
