MESQUITE, Texas - A YouTube video of a police officer using pepper spray on a baby squirrel has sparked outrage in the city of Mesquite, Tx.
A student recorded the incident. In the video, the officer is seen spraying the animal after it began chasing students around at Kimbrough Middle School.
Students are heard begging the cop, reffered to as Officer Davis on the video, to stop with cries of "No!" and "Don't spray him!"
Mesquite Police Department has defended the officer's actions.

Just watched the news replaying this with people calling in about it. One person started talking about animal cruelty and how is a little baby squirrel going to hurt you and the news switched to a Monty Python and Holy Grail scene where the rabbit is attacking everyone haha

My neighbor shoots squirrels out of his tree with a pellet gun, I believe his kill count is 50+ now. Sucks when they land in my yard though 🙁
