Watch: Police Respond To Runaway Llamas In Minnesota
Well, this isn't something you hear often in Minnesota. Police tracked down two runaway llamas in a Twin Cities suburb Wednesday morning.

"Roads are still icy in spots, 2 runaway llamas in custody on Skyline Drive." While ice is fairly common in Minnesota this time of year, runaway llamas are not, but that's what police from a Twin Cities suburb reported on Twitter just after 8 a.m. Wednesday.
Eagan police spokesman Aaron Machtemes told Patch that an officer responded at 7:30 a.m. to a report of llamas running around in the area of Pilot Knob and Skyline roads.
When the officer arrived to the scene, neighbors pointed him in the direction of where the two llamas had fled.

The llamas were later found hanging out in a resident's front yard. With the help of the llama owners, who arrived shortly after, the officer wrangled the llamas in.
The llamas were also given "llama treats," Machtemes said.

The llamas escaped from a home in Eagan about two blocks from where they were found. The residence was not zoned for llamas, so they will be living somewhere else after this episode, police say.
