Local authorities pursing the animal ended up taking four hours to track it down and required the assistance of a police helicopter with an infrared camera to help them to find it in the dark.

The elusive pony was eventually caught after following another horse in to a pen.

"I was standing with the CHP at the time and a call came over the radio that said the unicorn is in custody," said owner Sandra Boos who had been taking pictures of the pony when it escaped.

"There was a huge sigh of relief, a few tears and some laughter."
