Scrim, a runaway white Terrier who has captivated the attention of many in New Orleans after pulling off two escapes last year has been rescued for a third time, a local animal group announced Tuesday.
After months on the run, Scrim was found Tuesday morning by a member of the nonprofit animal group Trap Dat Cat, according to Zeus' Rescues, a second animal group.
Scrum had been missing since he jumped 13 feet out of a second-story window in November while being cared for in the home of Michelle Cheramie of Zeus' Rescues.

The U.S. confirmed at least a dozen deaths from whooping cough last year, according to preliminary figures released this week by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That marks the most fatalities from the bacterial infection since a 2017 surge of the illness, which is also known as pertussis.

As vaccination rates decline, widespread outbreaks of diseases like measles and polio could reemerge
Health officials in western Texas are trying to contain a measles outbreak among mostly school-aged children, with at least 15 confirmed cases. It's the latest outbreak of a disease that had been virtually eliminated in the U.S., and it comes as vaccination rates are declining — jeopardizing the country's herd immunity from widespread outbreaks.
