**I saw a wild pig running down the street.** Actually, to be more correct, the pig was running down the center median of Highway 6, just west of the old Johnstone cutoff. It was a large, pinkish-white pig, with black blotches.
A man in dungarees was chasing the pig around in the grassy strip between the highways. I pulled a U-turn, and went back to investigate. When I talked with the man, a Mr. Smith, he said it was not HIS pig, but he was afraid it might get hit by a car while running all about. We took the stake-side from his pickup bed off, attempted to corral the pig, and ended up chasing the pig all around the median for the next hour and a half. Slippery bugger.
We finally managed to corner the pig between my squad car and the pickup truck. Long story a little longer, we finally got the pig into the back of his truck, stake-side back on, tailgate closed, and all back to normal.
I swung the squad car around to head back North on Highway 6, and stopped to talk to the man before I left. I told him to take the pig to the fairgrounds, as the County Fair was going on, and they would be able to help him out.

I was cruising Highway 6 today, and saw that same white pickup from July 12, with Mr. Smith driving, and a pig sitting up, riding on the passenger side in the front seat. I pulled a U-turn, hit the lights, and stopped him just south of the Pottersville Junction Road.
When I asked Mr. Smith why he didn't take the pig to the fair, he grinned widely and replied:
“I DID. He LOVED it! We're on our way to the movies today."
