Ram evades US authorities for an hour after trailer escape

A shaggy brown ram successfully dodged police, his handlers and a few cars while trotting through central Des Moines in the US after escaping from his trailer.

But the ram’s freedom only lasted about an hour before he was cornered and tackled by about a half dozen of his pursuers.

The Navajo-Churro ram jumped from a trailer near the Iowa Capitol.

He led police, Animal Rescue League officials and some Capitol workers on a chase. Authorities say the ram was being taken from Creston to Cedar Rapids.
