Tis’ the spooky season for strange and inexplicable phenomena to occur. Ohio police had to deal with something right out of the schlock classic Attack of the Killer Tomatoes… except in this case it was a pumpkin… a GIANT INFLATABLE PUMPKIN!!!!
Halloween displays are meant to scare you and give the illusion of danger, but one such inflatable display in Bay Village, Ohio took the holiday a bit too method and ended up “attacking” a police officer.
Village Bay police officers received a call to a neighborhood to stop what was described as a rogue inflatable pumpkin which was blocking traffic.
But as dashcam video shows… the giant inflate-o-lantern wasn’t going down without a fight! At one point in the “gourd wrangling” the pumpkin showed some guts (or lack thereof) and actually rolled on top of one of the officers.
Luckily no one was hurt and the pumpkin – despite resisting arrest – was returned to its owner.
