Loose llama is finally caught after wreaking havoc on police in Virginia
  • last year
Police used thermal imaging cameras to track down and capture a rampaging llama - but not before it gave officers a right run around.

Cops in Fairfax, Virginia, USA, were called out to the 'llama drama' after reports came in of an errant camelid roaming around a resdiential area.

Officers, accompanied by Animal Protection police, tracked down the animal - but not without a chase.

Video shows the animal in a wooded area using thermal imaging cameras, as well as body cameras worn by the officers.

The officers gave chase and, after finally catching the surprisingly nimble llama, loaded into a large vehicle to be transported to an animal shelter.
