Green Bay, WI (AHN)- Green Bay Police Lt. Todd LePine said a pig withstood taser shots from police officers and eluded authorities for more than an hour after wandering onto Green Bay's major highway. The 150-pound pig was reportedly spotted by a passing driver on U. S. 41 at 6 p. m. Wednesday night, and went into traffic several times, creating a hazard. LePine said officers located the pig about 7 p. m. and made two attempts to subdue it with a stun gun, but it fled both times after pulling out the Taser probes.

A spokeswoman for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has described a live art performance scheduled to take place in a English art gallery as "sick. " In the performance piece, called "Inthewrongplaceness," a naked woman cradles a dead pig for four hours. Reuters reports the PETA spokeswoman said Kira O'Reilly's show "seems to depend on the shock of using a murdered pig as a prop" and that O'Reilly, "perhaps lacking the talent to make it as a proper artist," should take up a day job instead.
