Pig hams it up in back of police cruiser

If we learned anything from the recent goat “arrest’’ in New Hampshire, it’s that animals in squad cars, much like bad puns, never get old.

With that in mind, here’s a pig hamming it up for the camera in the back of a police cruiser in Shelby Township, Michigan.

After corralling the stray pig in a neighbor’s yard Thursday, the Shelby Township Police Department posted the above photo on Facebook.

Why is the pig smiling? Probably because it was making a mess in the back of the car, police said (we know, “You’re bacon me crazy!’’).

The pig’s owner offered to clean the mess, according to The Detroit News. And after a short stint at the station, you might say, this little piggy went wee wee wee all the way home.
