Of course, it didn’t take long before Twitter joined in the hunt. #Llamas became a trending topic worldwide.
The chase began after a 911 call came in to the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office just before noon, reporting that a black llama and a white llama had escaped from an assisted living facility, where they were about to do patient therapy work.
Lt. Brandon Jones said the llamas darted between cars, delaying traffic.
It took nearly an hour to catch them, CNN affiliate KNXV reported.

“Needless to say, they are on their way back to the ranch,” the lieutenant said. “There was no therapy.”
Tell that to the Twitterverse.
