The public held its breath yesterday as news broke of the most momentous event in recent memory—one whose outcome would forever change our world. It had nothing to do with international diplomacy in Singapore, or the escalating trade war that could reshape North America’s economies. It was, instead, the story of a humble raccoon that somehow found itself climbing the great heights of an office building in downtown St. Paul, Minnesota.
As we covered yesterday, the brave bandit seemed to be having an okay time clambering up ledges and presenting himself for photo opportunities, but the obvious worry remained: would this sweet little idiot be okay?
Thankfully, we can now report that all is well. The raccoon is safe. He has been captured. He ate some cat food.
