A runaway pony led police on a two-hour chase after they failed to bribe him with pizza crusts and peppermints.<br /><br />Videos shared by the Tuscaloosa Police Department in Alabama, USA, show officers pursuing the pony up and down driveways and through people's backyards.<br /><br />After a two-hour, low speed chase, the animal was eventually captured and nicknamed Ginuwine, after the R&B singer with the 1996 hit 'Pony'.<br /><br />The police department wrote on Facebook: “He was extremely unwilling to go with the officers at first, and not at all interested in the pizza crusts or peppermints they offered.<br /><br />“He eventually allowed himself to be caught, and was happy to get pets and pose for selfies."<br /><br />Ginuwine was transported to Therapeutic Riding of Tuscaloosa (TROT), a nonprofit organization that provides riding lessons as therapy for disabled children and adults. <br /><br />Police have now tracked down the pony's owners and learned his true name is Knight, and he’s about four years old. <br /><br />Police said Ginuwine/Knight will remain at the organization’s farm in Cottondale, where visitors can meet him at an Easter egg hunt on Saturday.<br /><br />“He's making friends, learning manners and still getting comfortable at his new home,” police said.<br /><br />The incident happened on March 21.
