An escaped pig that went on a rampage through a New York neighborhood turned out to be a pet belonging to a Buffalo Police Department officer. Residents on Victor Place in the Hamlin Park Historic District of Buffalo said their neighborhood erupted into chaos Wednesday afternoon when the large pig ran through the area and chased after locals. A video captured by a resident shows animal control and police officers pursuing the porcine perpetrator. The pig, aptly named Breakfast, had apparently escaped by scooting under a fence. The owner was eventually able to capture the pig and take it home. Buffalo doesn’t have any city laws expressly prohibiting ownership of pigs or other farm animals inside city limits.
