From the Brisbane Telegraph, Saturday 22 March 1952:
Too many hops!
Roo’s romp in city
A wandering kangaroo with too many hops was arrested in Queen Street this morning.
He was lodged in the City Watchhouse with a number of other temporary residents in the same condition.
Later, he joined the brotherhood at the Botanic Gardens.
Early morning workers blinked when they saw the little fellow hopping briskly along Roma Street toward King George Square.
A policeman on beat whistled, but the ‘roo didn’t fall for that one and promptly hopped it up to Queen Street.
When Joey reached Queen Street, he turned right and hopped up toward the “Brisbane Telegraph” biulding, but he didn’t come in.
Sergeant E. Puddle, who was on beat nearby, decided it was time to do something. He strolled up quietly to Joey, spoke softely to him and grabbed him by the tail.
Joey didn’t want to go at first,
