An EPD officer keeps a wary eye on the criminal couple as they contemplate making a getaway. [Photos all by Jason Kraft]
Yesterday, a pair of unruly fugitives from justice attempted to slip from their secret lair somewhere in the heart of Eureka–no doubt to commit fearsome deeds. But an alert citizen spotted the escapees. The surly duo attempted to flee capture on foot..er..hoof but the citizen nabbed the escapees on I Street and Manzanita about 7 p.m. and the cops were called.
Wary Eureka Police officers approached the four-legged miscreants unsure if their mane task was to tail them for awhile or bring the two in for questioning.
“They escaped from a place just down the hill from here, near or on Hemlock St.,” Jason Kraft who took these photos told us. “[E]ventually the owners were located… .”
All in all, everyone got a kick out of the experience… .

I thought that maybe Ford was being provided with complimentary transportation to Ft Bragg.
And they called the police?? Why not the 4H? Or animal control. Or a Jackass like Rex Bohn?
Lol, the second jackass is Michelle Bushnell
So, why the long faces?
They got ”their” asses kicked this time
Got your share of puns out of that one.
This is the Punniest article I have read in some time!!!

Kym just wants to pin the tale on the donkey.
Bet they feel like complete jackasses now. Wonder what their pun-ishment will be?
I think you all are putting the donkey before the cart. They probably just wanted to horse around for a bit.
They’re kinda small. Does that make them burritos? I’ll have to mule that one over. Nay. Just two ass-ettes.
Small asses?
(🤔🧐Careful what you wish for…😁)
Really?
Their not exactly “miniatures”…
It’s Eureka, those asses are on the bigger side, but, due to the EPD response, they must be within “the city limits”…
Any shots fired? (It “is” the EPD)
…Because both of the detained do appear to have been grazed…
It’s a turf war out there, and we can’t let a couple of wayward asses run roughshod through town. Hat tip to the lawman for putting an end to their rein.
I’m sure it will be just another catch and release, they are probably already out on bale, for just a few bucks.
It good they are being taken in for questioning. Given the current state of affairs, they might be Moscow Mules. Give them a little lime and ginger with their mug shots.
Groan 😉
They should have just asked a local to watch them for a couple hours. Like the nice guy that watched the pig
Right? What could possibly go wrong?
: )
“You bet your sweet Ass!”
Mike, your donkeys got out!
Are we looking at a rash of donkey pox now?
Edit: Oops. Sorry about that. On my flip phone, the “d” is right above the “m”.
I see 3 asses in the photo.
Are the two of them, bi?
