“It’s completely out of control and if you’re near the Museum of Natural History, in all the gardens there, they leap out at you from the grass. Everyone knows not to go out at night.”A video of the rat’s activities was posted on social media.A police spokesman said the car in the video is only for use by supervisors and that the door had been left open for a brief period.
