"She then 'stirruped' some trouble and wanted a butter burger at Culver's, then [traveled] down US-6 where unsuspecting drivers saw a full siren police chase with her," the department said on social media.

Police were able to corner the horse at Motor Sportsland.

"We had a couple of awesome citizens who our girl took a liking to and assisted officers with roping, bridling, and after hours of work, were able to get her in the [Utah County Sheriff's Office] trailer," the post said.
