Ohio police officers recently rescued a “distressed” raccoon working a night shift in suburban Cleveland after it somehow got a jar of mayonnaise stuck on its head.
The Pennsville Police Department shared traffic camera footage showing the struggle between officers Chad Balawski and Steve Ettinger to trap the small animal and remove the jar.
Once the jar is removed, the raccoon can be seen running, almost running into the intern who was shadowing the officers that night.
