HoC Random Armed Cat of the Day - 042817

Police called to reports of a cat up a tree... armed with a rifle

I know you think I am making this up but I am not.

In a Facebook post, the Newport Police Department said they warned the moggie:

The post read: "Reports of an armed cat this morning were unfounded. The feline was contacted by our canine and was determined to be in possession of a non-lethal branch."

"The cat was given a verbal warning for posing with what could be mistaken as an assault rifle while wearing poor camouflage attire."

And we can't forget this bit: Police reassured the public the cat was not armed nor dangerous.

Which is clearly wrong as all cats are dangerous!
