US police rescue diaper-clad kangaroo after surprise 911 call

The caller said, “Hi, I know this is going to sound totally crazy but I was downtown and walking home from work. It’s like a baby kangaroo in a diaper is wandering down the main street.” .

Police responded to the 911 call by recording what happened with a body camera.

The animal can be seen jumping through the streets in the dark.

The red kangaroo was claimed to be someone’s pet.

The kangaroo was rescued by its owner and was not harmed.

It is legal to own a red kangaroo in Colorado, according to Colorado Parks and Wildlife.

“This was one of the best calls of my career so far,” said an officer who responded to the call.

The department posted the incident on Facebook: “Who knew kangaroo wrangling was part of the job?”
