“A porcupine is getting around a bit easier after a New Hampshire Fish and Game conservation officer and local police chief helped pull an arrow out of its back. Danville Police Chief Wade Parsons tells the Eagle-Tribune newspaper that the animal had to stop walking every four or five feet. He couldn’t move forward without getting caught in the brush. Conservation officer Chris McKee used a snare pole to rein in the porcupine — and took care not to come into contact with his quills. He said the arrow had missed muscle and bone. The porcupine ran off afterward. McKee said the animal had been chattering and seemed to be in good health, otherwise.” w/ photo

“An elderly Russian woman was arrested – after she stole her neighbor’s stallion on her 80th birthday to tick off one her dreams on her bucket list. Agrafena Vasilyevna was quizzed by police for rustling after steeping into neighbor Igor Vasilev’s stable, saddled up his horse Lyme and galloped away. When she returned an hour later she found her neighbor and a police car waiting for her. Mrs Vasilyevna, from Tverskaya, told stunned officers that she had always wanted to ride a horse but had never had the chance. ‘They told me off but it was worth it. I’ve fulfilled a dream I’ve had since childhood and I was running out of time,’ she said.” w/ photo
