MESA, Ariz. (KSAZ) - It was a scary situation this morning when a loose dog ran free along a Mesa freeway in rush-hour traffic.

Troopers with the Arizona Department of Public Safety blocked off traffic lanes along the eastbound US 60 near Gilbert Road to chase the loose pup, who was initially spotted running near the HOV lane.

Eventually, the pup ran safely off the freeway and into a nearby neighborhood.
