This little piggy is causing a headache for authorities.

A pig that has been spotted “multiple times” in the median of I-59 in Springville has evaded police and animal control officers attempting to capture it on Friday as authorities consult state law enforcement agencies on a plan to save the swine.

“The City of Springville Police department is aware of the pig that has been spotted multiple times in the median of I-59 near the 154 and 156 miles markers,” the department posted on its Facebook page Friday afternoon. “We, and animal control officers, have attempted to capture it but have been unsuccessful. We ask that you not attempt to rescue it due to the potential safety hazard this would create on the interstate.”

The agency said it is in contact Alabama Law Enforcement Agencies and state troopers to come up with a rescue effort “that does not involve shutting down both lanes of traffic.”

Further information was not immediately available.
