It’s the great pumpkin!
A giant inflatable pumpkin making a bid for freedom was caught on video nearly squashing pedestrians and drivers as it rolled through the streets of Arizona.
The footage shows the 25-foot-tall, 350-pound jack-o-lantern crossing multiple lanes of traffic in Peoria on Thursday before briefly getting stuck beneath a streetlight.
The faux gourd soon broke free, and continued its rampage another quarter mile — bouncing off of a wall, careening through parking lots, and finally stopping in a neighborhood where it again became stuck, local NBC affiliate 12 News reported.
The owners of the pumpkin, Big AZ Promotions, were alerted by authorities their pumpkin was on the loose.
“We showed up and it wasn’t there and we spent the last 40 minutes driving around looking for it,” employee Patrick Sparkes told the television station.
Officials believe the inflatable escaped from a Halloween display because of the high winds.
The pumpkin was eventually cornered and deflated, and no injuries were reported.

Well I hope this idiot doesn’t have kids if he can’t keep his eye on a 25 foot pumpkin. If that thing got away from him he’d never find an eight year-old.
