A capon caper

Tuesday evening there was a prowler in Warrensburg. Two patrolmen scratched around looking for him, but he'd flown the coop. That's the way the situation stood until this afternoon, when he was sighted near Domino's, acting like the cock of the walk. But he proved to be chicken when chased by some Domino's employees, a Warrensburg officer, and even the animal control officer. The now crestfallen miscreant was apprehended and taken to HQ, where it is likely he was grilled.

The culprint's identity? According to the police scanner, he was a rooster.
