Those of who with any knowledge of history might find that amusing. I did.
Oregon as had some fun law enforcement stories. Some years ago, the Chief of Police in Portland was one Charles Moose. During some demonstration or the other, a protestor was arrested, alleged that he was roughed up, and subsequently, he sued the police. Man's name was "Squirrel."
The piece was buried in the Metro section, but I cannot imagine how the headline writer missed that: SQUIRREL SUES MOOSE ...
Truth is ever so much stranger than fiction ...

I met Douglas Squirrel one time at a meeting. We ran that Squirrel and Moose line in "The Portland Free Press" under editor Ace Hayes.
