The pair was separated briefly during the chase, but found each other again shortly before the black llama was lassoed in by two citizens near 103rd Avenue. The streets looked more like a rodeo arena as several people tried to lasso both llamas.
– If you were wondering why the actor Lorenzo Lamas was trending on Twitter today, it all has to do with a pair of runaway llamas in suburban Phoenix. The two animals led police and civilians on a lunch-hour chase around the streets of Sun City before they were finally lassoed, reports AP. As you might imagine, the chaos spawned all kinds of memes and headlines of the "Lllamas on the Lloose" variety, notes Time. (Slate dubbed them "Thellma and Llouise.) The two were reportedly being transferred to an elderly care center to work as therapy animals when the great escape somehow took place, reports USA Today.
