Wilmington, NC – Animal Control in Wilmington got a special delivery Thursday morning - a pony and two police officers.

Wilmington Police say at around 4:15 Thursday morning, they received a call that a horse was on the loose. Officers chased what turned out to be a pony and cornered him inside a fenced in lot.

A pair of officers walked the pony to Animal Control where the owner came to pick him up. Animal Control says the tan and white pony's name is Stormy.
