Indiana State Police Officers answered an emergency in Laporte County on Sunday February 23 about a female pony that was seen on an Indiana Toll Road near the 44-mile marker median area. The Indiana State Police were able to chase the female pony who was then caught by the police officers when the pony who answers to the name Sassy was entangled in some vines. Sassy was then returned to her owner after the owner of the pony mentioned that the pony charged at the owner and ran away from home. I can see how Sassy got her name based on behavior with her owner. Link is upi.com/7181740431477 via @upi

It does seem as though Sassy is well-named.

I wonder if the owner was charged a toll for allowing her donkey to go on the toll road like that. It was good that it was captured promptly before other cars had to pay a toll, for hitting an unexpected obstacle,a donkey, on the road like that.

Probably the owner will be charged by the police for allowing Sassy to get away from her home.
