WHY did the chicken cross the road?

No, seriously.

Oklahoma City police were left to ponder the answer after a chicken appeared at a busy intersection in the US city.

In a video shared by the department on Facebook, the chicken ambles up to the pedestrian crossing, waits for the all clear and then starts to cross.

No punchline. Just a chicken crossing the road.

As for why. Well the police said they tried to interview the hen but "she lawyered up".
