Lost Tortoise Rescued
(Portland, OR) -- Portland Police rescued a runaway tortoise Thursday. While walking along a multi-use path near I-205, officers spotted the tortoise and recognized it was likely someone's pet. Multnomah County Animal Control confirmed it was "Bowser," reported missing Tuesday from his home on the other side of 205. Bowser's owner says he escaped when someone inadvertently left the gate open. They were reunited Thursday afternoon at the animal shelter. It's unclear how he traversed the freeway.
