St. Mary's County (Md.) Sheriff's Office
The suspect in the trashing of a dollar store was captured on camera.
In Maryland, at least one badly behaved beaver is ready for holiday shopping.
The beaver was apprehended at a dollar store in Charlotte Hall, Md., the St. Marys County Sheriffs Office said in a statement, apparently after browsing the selection of artificial Christmas trees and trashing the place.
The suspect attempted to flee the area, as the sheriffs office put it in a statement, but it was apprehended by animal control and released to an animal rehabilitator hopefully not just to be released into the wild, but to be taught basic shopping etiquette.
All joking aside, the beaver was safely rescued by animal control and released to wildlife rehabilitation, authorities tweeted.
