Police in Ohio shared body camera footage of a giant inflatable pumpkin that broke away from the front of a house and rolled through town.

The Parma Heights Police Department said on social media that officers found themselves "in hot pursuit of a giant inflatable pumpkin" that was rolling through the city in the early hours of Wednesday.


Body camera footage shows the pumpkin being held in place on the side of a road by an officer and an assisting citizen.

The officer explains that he had followed the pumpkin down the road.

"I was practically in pursuit," the police officer says, reports the Telegraph.

The police ended up putting the pumpkin in the back of a patrol car, to transport it back to its owner's yard.

"Officers can confirm that Cinderella's carriage did, in fact, turn into a pumpkin shortly after midnight in Parma Heights," police wrote. /Telegraph
