WASHINGTON — This might be the luckiest of all ducklings.

A tiny mallard duckling mysteriously appeared in the Anne Arundel County Police Department’s Academy recently.

Now safely in the care of the rescue center, police say he’ll be cared for until he’s ready to be reintroduced to the wild.

In a nod to police, the duckling has been named Copper.
