00:04A Washington man has been arrested in late March after allegedly breaking into his ex-girlfriend's

00:09home and making off with an unusual prize, her pet chicken.

00:15Hey, hey, relax a little.

00:19The Kitsap County Sheriff's Office said the suspect violated a protection order when he

00:23kicked in the back door, snatched the chicken and ran repeatedly yelling, I've got Polly.

00:28I'm going to have you put the chicken in here for a second.

00:30Body cam footage captured deputies tracking him down on a rural road where he was still

00:34clutching the bird.

00:36Authorities noted he had been released from jail less than three hours before the incident.

00:41The man was arrested and allowed to place the unharmed chicken safely in a patrol car

00:46before being booked for burglary and violating a protection order.

00:49Hey, show us your hands.

00:51Sir, I've got my chicken.

00:53Stand up.

00:54Show me your hands.
