We're going to have to do a welfare check on the state of Ohio. First, it was the Skyline chili-flavored ice cream, now it's runaway inflatable pumpkins. Is everything okay in the Buckeye State?
Watch as an Ohio cop tries to wrangle the runaway Halloween decor:

More from WKRC:
Recently released video shows Ohio police battling an inflatable jack-o'-lantern.
No officers or pumpkins were harmed on Monday after an Ohio police officer was "attacked" by a Halloween display, according to a post from the Bay Village Police Department.
Officers were dispatched for a "runaway pumpkin." Dashcam video shows a large pumpkin inflatable blowing across the road, nearly swallowing two officers.
Here in Wisconsin, costume store Halloween Express puts up a giant inflatable pumpkin on the State Fair grounds and for several years, we'd get big windstorms that would cause it to collapse. Very similar vibes.
It's like Rover in "The Prisoner."

+1000 for 'The Prisoner' reference.
And he was never seen again. Some say on a dark Halloween night you can still hear him.

Gosh I hate this. One of my pet peeves. Control your jack-o'-lanterns people! 😠

“Encountered massive, aggressive orange orb. Likely filled with air. Resisted arrest. I want one for my front yard too.”
Well played.
Halloween is inevitable.
