Officers grabbed the kangaroo by the tail as instructed. 'We had previous knowledge of the kangaroo being on the loose in the area,' says Durham regional police staff Sgt Chris Boileu. 'In a rural property ... two of our officers located the wayward marsupial, [and] were able to keep eyes on him for several hours. Just before 7am, they were able to apprehend the kangaroo.'

Videos on social media show the marsupial, who was born in captivity, running along roads in Oshawa, a town on Lake Ontario about 37 miles (60 km) east of Toronto.
