Rush-hour traffic in Atlanta came to a standstill yesterday afternoon when an escaped circus Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus zebra galloped along a busy section of highway.
The animal was first spotted about 4:30 p.m. in downtown Atlanta, said Georgia Department of Transportation spokeswoman Monica Luck.
The animal made its way through downtown to the interstate highway that cuts through the center of the city. Police cruisers blocked off all southbound lanes and were able to herd the zebra over to the right shoulder and off an entrance ramp, Luck said.Courtesy of Josip Marcan

You may recall that Cliff Vargas would sometimes react to bad business by hauling a tiger in a cage into some prominent local area.
Cliff would then inform the local media that the animal had escaped and his people were doing their best to locate him. By the time the media folks arrived, the tiger was safely back in his cage. Of course, he'd never left.
Still, quite a bit of ink was usually achieved, reporting the story of the escaped animal who, thank God, had been safely captured.
