Dog hijacks police patrol car, eats officer’s beef jerky

Police in Kilgore, Texas say a pitbull is in Animal Control custody after he hijacked a patrol car and ate an officer’s beef jerky.

The officer responded to a report of an aggressive dog, and when he got to the location he found the dog, Cujo, running around and thought he could catch it.

He opened the back door of the patrol car and tried to coax it in because the back seat is caged, but instead the dog jumped into the driver’s seat.

The officer tried to get the dog out, but he became aggressive, so the officer had to shut the door. While inside, Cujo enjoyed the air conditioning and the officer’s beef jerky.

The police chief heard strange radio traffic and tried to ask questions over the radio. That is when the officer sent him a picture of the situation.

The chief said the dog didn’t look happy, and the officer responded by saying, “He ain’t, and neither am I.”

Animal Control went to help the officer and took Cujo into custody. The chief says the only injury was to the officer’s pride.
