Richard the Rooster lives!

We last checked in with him in July. He's the guy who has been making his home in the 500 block of South Johnson Street for quite some time now.

Back in July, the fancy chick escaped from its owner on East Lehr. With the help of the Ada Icon, Richard the Rooster's owner was identified and the bird was returned home, but the sly fowl got away again. He took up residency on South Johnson this time. Neighbors have been feeding him, kids who live nearby watch his antics, he's a novelty on a street lined with houses.

But the guy's days may be numbered.
