ROUND ROCK, Texas (KXAN) -- The Round Rock Police Department responded to a call Thursday involving an unusual "suspect."
The department said in a post on social media its animal control officers responded to a call about a bobcat kitten playing with packages on someone's front porch.
"The mischievous little feline was safely transported to a local wildlife rehabilitator, where it will receive 'purrsonalized' VIP (Very Important Predator) treatment until it's old enough to be released," RRPD said in the post.
