According to police, Mason resisted when officers attempted to arrest him.
According to the department, officers found Mason on the mule.
He reportedly refused to stop and fled down the road on the mule.
Seems like every time there’s a police chase, it’s all over Twitter and social media.
Everyone starts cheering for spikes or seeing how it ends.
But that’s when it involves cars.
Welcome to Murray, Kentucky where you get a mule involved.
It’s Kentucky, can’t rule out being on a horse for a police chase.
It’s not bourbon, basketball and racing for no reason in the Commonwealth.
This fella might be a long way from Keeneland, but he’s not going to lose the spirit.
He decided the best course of action was to escape on mule, twice.
That’s really the part of the story being undersold here.
Everyone focusing on the mule and rightfully so.
But he got arrested twice in three days while the mule was around.
you might’t get arrested on a Monday after you get arrested on a Saturday.
Not even late Saturday night, that’s an early night to be at a local alcohol establishment.
Get off the road and get into the green area.
This is also what happens in Kentucky when you wander away from Lexington, Louisville and like Covington/Newport.
