A "non-compliant" pig led officers on a lengthy chase through a town in Washington, USA, on November 9.

Bodycam footage released by the Tacoma Police Department shows officers chasing down the unusual but nevertheless rowdy suspect.

The officers can be seen approaching the pig before it begins to run amuck, at which point an officer can be heard describing the pig as "non-compliant".

The pig, named Notorious P.I.G., was safely captured shortly after and escorted off the streets to The Rusty Bar Ranch, where he is now staying.
