The offending llama with Capt. David Hale, the Oconee County Sheriff's Office's "llama whisperer."
Llama, llama ... Oconee Count-ah?
The Peruvian pack animal caused a stir this afternoon when it was spotted running free through the rugged peaks of Epps Bridge Parkway.
According to the Oconee County Sheriff's Office, they received a call around 4 p.m. that a "baby camel" was running loose around the busy commercial strip.
They called a llama rescue group to help, but before help arrived, they were able to corral the llama near Cook-Out, thanks in part to an employee who provided a bag of carrots as bait.
The sheriff's department said they didn't know how the llama got loose, but deputies got in touch with the owner, an Oconee County resident, who came to pick it up in a van.
The incident made national news, but WSB-TV in Atlanta has the best collection of videos I was able to find.
