Offbeat | 2 loose llamas lassoed after running amok in Arizona

Two quick-footed llamas that dashed in and out of traffic in a Phoenix-area retirement community were captured by authorities last week, causing a stir in the streets and on social media.
Television footage showed a large white llama and a smaller black llama darting through the streets of Sun City during the lunch hour. Cars and golf carts stopped in their tracks because of the wayward animals.
The fugitive llamas were part of a trio that was making a therapy visit to residents at an assisted living facility.
Their televised breakout quickly inspired a Twitter account and several hashtags including #LlamasonTheLoose, #llamadrama and #TEAMLLAMAS.
Social media users shared running commentary and even photos of people gathered around a screen to watch the llama saga unfold.
