Police at the Jersey Shore were called to an unusual scene on Tuesday that ultimately led them to corralling a flock of sheep.

A family at the Jersey Shore is grateful to local police officers who sprang into action to help herd a flock of runaway sheep."My sheep had got a little too curious," owner Stephanie Wiscott said.

The flock of nine sheep belongs to Stephanie Wiscott and her family. Luckily, the sheep didn't wander too far."They cooperated the whole time. I think we pretty much just followed them back to make sure they were safe," officer Aiken said."They didn't get into the roadway and cause any problems or get hurt."

"They've been pretty free-ranging for the last couple of days, and they've never left the property," Wiscott explained. "When someone called 911 and said there's a herd of sheep in the middle of the road, we thought someone looked at the sun too long," one officer joked.
