NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — This past weekend, a zebra showed up roaming neighborhoods in Rutherford County and as of this morning it still has not been caught.
After several sightings on Saturday, no confirmed sightings of the zebra yesterday and the sheriff in Rutherford County says the animal remains at large — unless the owner found the zebra and has not reported it.
The zebra had escaped into a wooded area off I-24 between Joe B. Jackson Parkway and the Epps Mill Road exits Saturday afternoon and could not be located.
The sheriff says the owners apparently only obtained the zebra on Friday night. No word exactly on how it escaped.
If you spot the zebra, call the Rutherford County Sheriff's Office.

This is a story I immediately went home and showed my boys - young athletes with big dreams. The Vanderbilt football team's success has stolen the spotlight - what I love about Steve Layman's story is he reveals the individual hardships it took to get there. As Clark Lea says, "we all have scuff marks." This team proves perseverance pays off!
