Why did the turtle cross the road?
While the answer to that is still unknown, the Polk County Sheriff’s Office helped solve a little mystery of their own this week.
A turtle was stopped by deputies for “jaywalking” on Spirit Lake Road in Winter Haven. Deputies joked on social media that the turtle was found crossing the street near a Publix since it “probably just finished eating a Pub Sub.”
A Polk County deputy sprang into action and snagged a box from a nearby Circle K and wrangled the little fella. The turtle was taken to a “safe place away from traffic,” deputies said.
