A pet zebra's week-long escape in Tennessee ended Sunday with a dramatic helicopter rescue. The animal, which had become a local celebrity, was spotted in a tree.

"I've never seen anything like it." The zebra was unharmed and returned to its owner. The incident highlights the unusual challenges faced by law enforcement in dealing with unexpected situations.
