Headline: Masked Raider... Turns Out To Be A Raccoon

Caption: Police investigated a masked house raider - but instead found a RACCOON standing on the toilet cistern. Nevada County Sheriff officers attended a property on Tuesday (17 July), and say they had to coax the critter from the home. A police spokesperson reports: "He was described as a masked male that was rummaging through items inside the bathroom. Sure enough, when deputies arrived on scene, there was a racoon in the bathroom staring them down. Through great negotiation skills, Deputy Eick was able to convince the little guy to not resist and politely leave. He was ultimately escorted out of the house unharmed and pinky swore he would not return."
