Emus on the loose in Round Rock neighborhood
No, there is no Round Rock in Australia. It's the one near Austin. 
http://kxan.com/2015/10/22/emus-on-the-loose-in-round-rock-neighborhood/
A group – or mob – of emus were seen roaming through a Round Rock neighborhood Thursday afternoon.
Round Rock police say the call reporting the emus on the loose came in around 2:13 p.m. Dawn Watson, who sent in the video to KXAN, says they are a local group that roam the area around Forest Creek Golf Community. Residents were trying to “shoo” the animals into a more rural area.
Police say they were able to find the owner on Thursday evening, but even she is having trouble wrangling her mob. On Friday morning, the owner was attempting to contain the animals near Gattis School Road and Valley View Drive.
