Police officers in Alaska’s biggest city became wranglers early Friday morning, rounding up a couple of miniature horses that escaped from their corral.

A photo tweeted from the Anchorage police department showed three officers with the two horses they apprehended. The tweet read: “Some interesting runaways patrol came across this morning!”

The two little horses, one black and one tan, were found grazing in the median of a busy East Anchorage street about 5:30 a.m. Friday.

Police spokeswoman Jennifer Castro tells Anchorage television station KTUU that officers “were able to take these horses into custody.”

The horses were reunited with their owners after escaping from their corral and wandering a few blocks.

Castro says: “You can call it our runaway juveniles for the day.”
