Home on the playground? Burros roam onto Phoenix-area school

Peoria Unified School District spokeswoman Erin Dunsey says employees saw the burros enter the grounds through a parking lot. The animals then went to the playground and left through a side gate. Dunsey says the burros were there only briefly and before any students had arrived. Nobody was hurt.

Peoria police spokesman Brandon Sheffert says authorities received a call about burros running on a golf course and believes they were the same animals. Officials with the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, which oversees wild burro adoptions, say it's unusual to see the animals in a residential area. Anyone who encounters burros shouldn't approach or feed them.
