CAT COPS!

Last week, on November 28th, police in Ephrata, Pennsylvania, went to arrest Jonathan Steffy, 23, on an outstanding warrant. Steffy ran from police when they located him in the backyard of a residence. Police set a perimeter and began searching for Steffy. One officer noticed a black cat in a backyard. It was crouched and watching something intently in the vicinity of a shed. The officer checked the shed, but found nothing. He checked the cat again and saw that it was looking past him toward another shed. The officer located Steffy at this second shed and took him into custody without further incident. The Ephrata PD said they are thankful for any crime fighting assistance they get, whether human or feline.
* Wow. Black cats really ARE unlucky!
* The cats that don’t want us dead are just as happy to have us arrested.
* Cat Cops! Pussy Police! The Feline Force! The Kitty Corps! The Whisker … Whisker … aw, crap.
* He hid in a shed? That’s brilliant. Nobody would ever look there.
* Actually, the shed fits perfectly because this guy sounds like a real tool.
* I wouldn’t expect to see police departments hiring tracking cats just yet.
* It’s funny how these criminals don’t usually get good grades or good job reviews, but the warrants? The warrants are outstanding.
* The truth is that cats do so few heroic things that the stories are reported as international news stories.
