Semi - Intelligent Chicken on the Run

Chuckles, a three year old rooster from ole Cotter's farm, has escaped from the town of Hamsterdam Hill earlier today after a foot chase by local police. The animal, who has been described by officials as "seemingly mildly intelligent", and "a miracle of life that cannot be allowed to flourish", evaded capture by cleverly blending in to the crowd at a local farm. However, local police are taking flak for not noticing Chuckles' signature ten-gallon hat. 

Chuckles was the star pupil of "Mr. Cotter's Chicken Club", more often confused for his line of popular sandwiches, but in this case a school he was running for chickens who wanted to do something more with their pointless lives. In an investigation done on his school last year, Mr. Cotter called his passion "kind of like beating your head against the wall, but with chickens." Despite this, he had one pupil who made it all worth it. 

"Chuckles was different." Cotter reminisced. "After he learned to speak after just a few lessons, I let him run most operations on the farm . I guess he got sick of all of the responsibility, and took off. Honestly I was kind of waiting for the day he did. I pretty much stopped doing anything". 

Chuckles was last seen attempting to steal a car by a Martin, a 7- year old local who said of the incident "I wanna grow up to be a chicken and learn to steal cars too!" As of this writing Martin's school is investigating this comment, and whether he could have possibly passed the 2nd grade as his transcript suggests.
