In the early hours of Saturday morning, police in Ohio received a call from a sober man who was being followed by a pig.

Police initially thought the man was drunk when he was being pursued by the swine, but they later learned he was in fact sober.

North Ridgeville Police Department took to Facebook saying "At 5:26 this morning we received a call from a male who stated that he was walking home on Center Ridge from the Train Station in Elyria. He went on to state that he was being followed by a pig and didn’t know what to do. A pig. Riiiight.

Night shift responded to the obviously drunk guy walking home from the bar at 5:26 in the morning. He was at least drunk enough to call the police on himself while hallucinating.

Upon arrival, they found a very sober male walking eastbound on Center Ridge near Maddock Rd. from the actual Amtrak train station in Elyria, not the bar. Oh, and he was being followed by a pig.

Yes, a pig"

They continued, saying "Is this real life?

Also, we will mention the irony of the pig in a police car now so that anyone that thinks they’re funny is actually unoriginal and trying too hard.

Have a great day."

They were kind enough to update worried Facebook users just after 8am, letting people know that the pig, named Zoey, had been returned safely to it's owner.
