A zebra remains on the loose after the animal escaped from its owners in Tennessee over the weekend, authorities said. 

The owners “obtained” the zebra on Friday night and reported it missing on Saturday, the Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office said. 

The striped black-and-white animal managed to flee into a forested region near Interstate 24, causing disruption between Joe B. Jackson Parkway and the Epps Mill Road exits on Saturday afternoon, according to the sheriff’s office.

At the time, the zebra caused chaos on the freeway because it was running through traffic on both sides of the highway, authorities said.

The sheriff’s office didn’t say how or where the owners got the zebra, or where it was being housed at the time of its escape.
