A small family of squirrels caused a little headache and a lot of smiles after they were found inside a vehicle, officials said.

The Madison Police Department said Thursday that an officer was headed to work when her car suddenly stopped. She popped the hood and found a family of critters inside.

The squirrels that had moved in had eaten some wires, police said.

The officer named the four squirrel babies Charlie, Chase, Carl and Carsen and brought them to the Dane County Humane Society, officials said.
