It was a normal day at St. Francis Hospital until a large beaver decided to pay a visit. The furry intruder somehow found its way inside the building and caused quite a stir among the staff and patients.
The Bartlett Police Department received a call around 6:45 a.m. about the beaver roaming the hospital. They promptly arrived at the scene and captured the wily beast. But not before it had a chance to explore the premises and find a cozy spot under a piano.
The beaver was eyeing the wooden legs of the piano, perhaps hoping to nibble on them. The police department humorously noted, “Nom nom nom piano legs,” on their Facebook page, where they shared the incident with the public.
“Things you do not want under your tree on Christmas morning…,” the police department added on Facebook. “Officer Read made sure the beaver found a good home.”
Fortunately, neither the piano nor the hospital’s Christmas trees sustained any damage from the beaver’s teeth. The police department ensured that the beaver found a good home and was safely relocated. Officer Read was particularly praised for his role in handling the situation.
The incident has highlighted the unexpected challenges that law enforcement officers sometimes face. Despite the potential for trouble, the situation was handled efficiently and with a sense of humor, ensuring a happy ending for all involved, including the beaver.
The beaver’s adventure at St. Francis Hospital will be remembered not only for its uniqueness but also for the professional and compassionate response by the Bartlett Police Department. Their actions ensured that what could have been a problematic situation was instead resolved with care and a touch of humor.
