The Wayne Police Department is trying to help some pigs that are on the loose find their way home.
For the past 48 hours, members of the department have been responding to reports of what are believed to be four pigs that have been seen in the area. They had been seen around the western portion of Army Trail Road from approximately Robin Lane to Fox Glen Drive.
“We ended up finding out they had kind of been out and about for probably close to a week now,” Wayne Police Chief Tim Roberts said Wednesday morning, “although we just started getting calls in the last probably 48 hours and became involved in trying to corral them.”
Roberts said the owners of the pigs live in that general vicinity in unincorporated Kane County and were working last night to try to bring them home.
“They are aware of the fact that they are missing,” Roberts said. “We have a few residents that have experience in rescue and they have experience working with pigs or hogs. If we can get them kind of corralled, then we can try and use some of those resources to try to capture them and ultimately get them back home.”
As Roberts noted, trying to corral them has not been easy.
