Thank goodness the weather is getting warmer and Sheriff Bailey and Chief Collins are busy with other things to seek out Marion and Ohio's Official Groundhog, Buckeye Chuck!
He’s a little short, really furry – and can give you a nasty bite…even though he’s really very cute. And in case you missed it, Pennsylvania authorities have a bone to pick with Punxsutawney Phil – as the critter is wanted by the Monroe County Sheriff's Office in eastern Pennsylvania.
Phil, eastern US's weather predicting groundhog, has a warrant out for his arrest after incorrectly predicting that winter would last six more weeks. The six-week deadline has passed and the sheriff's office has had enough. Last week, the sheriff's office said it's, "seeking the apprehension of Punxsutawney Phil for deception.
As you might recall, back on February 2nd, Phil promised that there would be just six more weeks of winter…and that promise expired on March 16th. The groundhog's wanted poster is on the wall of shame in the sheriff's office, along with other suspects.
