Naughty little escape artist!

Brookhaven Police Officers responded to a residence for suspicious activity 🤨. The homeowner advised that they heard noises coming from upstairs and called 911 🚓💨 Officers found a back door opened and their spidey-sense 🕸 went up.

After a thorough search of the residence, Officer Flynn’s spidey-sense paid off and located the burglar. A bearded dragon had made a felony escape from its enclosure and was terrifying 😱 its owners.

The bearded dragon was safely taken into custody and returned to its enclosure…Officer Flynn is currently applying for warrants, escape, fleeing and eluding, and for being better looking (first degree felony) than Officer Flynn 👮‍♂️.

Please check out the photo attached!
