FALLS COUNTY, TX — One tricky raccoon ran circles around a Falls County judge on Monday.

Judge Matthew Wright chronicled his experience with the unwanted Labor Day guest on Facebook.

He started by asking his followers for help after he discovered the trespasser around 5 a.m. "I am tired of tracking this thing and trying to keep him from damaging stuff," he wrote.

Things escalated when the raccoon found his way onto the curtains. Wright called it a "tactical impasse". He set up traps in hopes that the raccoon would venture out of his home for cat food.

As seen by this photo, the raccoon was not pleased with this approach. You could even say the little guy started to taunt Wright.

Wright's followers stayed supportive throughout the entire ordeal - offering advice along the way.

One commenter said, "Good Heavens Matthew, find out his name, go on Amazon and get him a bed, and charge him rent. You shouldn't have to worry about mice or rats and they are very cuddly when they are not mad."

Another said what every Texan in this heat is thinking, "Dude just wants a nap in the AC. Go back to work."

And another remained optimistic about the trash panda's intentions, saying, "maybe he’ll do some cleaning overnight to help earn his keep."

Wright said he then tried "frontal assault", but underestimated how fast the raccoon was. After this failed attempt, he decided it was time to think about his enemy.

This isn't any raccoon - it is a Texas raccoon. And if you are a Texan, you know how stubborn we all are. But we also know our weakness.

Tamales and queso.

And yes folks, that is how the raccoon was finally apprehended after a 20-hour standoff. No one can resist tamales.

He served 20-30 minutes of jail time before being released into the wild - with conditions to never enter the poor judge's home again.

We were able to get a look into his new home. We have a feeling he will fit in just fine.
