"Two drivers had worked together to corner the swan which we put into a rescue bag before Traffic Officer Ronnie released it on a nearby lake for the greater good.”
This incident follows a similar one last month which saw a Hot Fuzz-style chase as Northants Police rescued a swan from the A45 near Rushden Lakes.
