A courtroom in South Africa's Brakpan met with chaos after an owl flew inside.
During a murder trial last week, the barn owl snuck into the chamber through ceiling which had a hole. This led to commotion inside the courtroom with people screaming their hearts out, as per reports.
Later, a rescue centre safely caught the owl and also shared its picture on social media.
Sharing the picture of the owl in a Facebook post, the rescue centre wrote, "the owl actually flew in through a hole in the ceiling which had the magistrate and the entire room full of people running out screaming.''
The post further read, "It took us awhile, but we rescued the little fella. While up in the roof, we overheard a murder trial being discussed, with the judge saying that it's near impossible to solve a Brakpan murder. The DNA is all the same and there are no dental records."
