A Pig Wanders Studio City
A black pot-bellied pig wandered onto Agnes Street, and E.M. Fredric found it.
Editor's Note: It's not something you find every day in Studio City, but , who is on our , and a to Patch, found a pig! Here's her story, and she put together a video with help from her son
It was Saturday at 3:10p.m.... a black pot-bellied pig is seen on Agnes Street.
I holler down from my carport over to a guy and ask, "How old is your pig?"

He says, "It's not my pig.. it just showed up!"
I go down to the street and a lady shows up, I ask her, "Is this your pig?"

She says, "No! I'll call animal control..."
I advise her to leave animal control out of it and she tells me she'll Twitter the plight of the pig and alert Studio City Patch. This lady claims to be a Patch follower...
Within 10 minutes, the pig is eating my breakfast bars and not going for a fresh grapefruit that I'd offered it. Neither the lady or I have a rope, the guy is long gone and then a door opens in front of an apartment building.
A woman looks out, I ask, "Is this your pig?"
She hesitates, steps out and gasps, "How'd you get out, Anna?!"
Anna the pot-bellied pig had wandered out of her apartment. It turns out it's the boyfriend's pig. Anna happily grunts back into her front door.
Editor's Note: A license is required to have a pot-bellied pig within the city limits of Los Angeles. George Clooney, a Studio City resident, is one of a few people who had a license to own two pigs in Los Angeles. If you don't have a license, you could be ordered to send away your pig. I know, we had one living downstairs, and she had to go to Li'l Orphan Hammies, the pig sanctuary in Solvang.
