Llamas escape in Arizona, take over social media along the way

There are dangerous police chases and then there’s whatever the heck happened in Sun City, Arizona, near Phoenix, today. Two llamas managed to get loose, leaving the city - and the pun-lovers on social media - enthralled for an hour.

ABC15 reports that the animals somehow managed to escape a demonstration today. They ran around the city, ignoring all traffic rules and escaping captors.

ABC15 and other local news affiliates started live-streaming the llama chase. It was almost like Anchorman 2 coming to life.

An hour later, the two lalams were caught and have since been returned to their owners.

Of course, the chase kept social media enthralled, keeping pun-makers and GIF-lovers from their work.

Hopefully, the llamas enjoyed their moment in the spotlight. They might just get a book deal out of it.
