Swan brings major road to a standstill
Discussion
Last week, my boss got stuck on a major road for half an hour due to this 'incident'
The traffic was stopped by a swan (and the police). Apparently it was like that bit in Hot Fuzz, except they weren't chasing the swan.
One policeman was sat in the car reading a paper, and the other one was shouting at people who got out of their cars to get back inside, and stopping people who wanted to drive past.
Weird.

Had a similiar thing in Alton a few years ago.
My passenger got out of the cab, calmly cornered & picked up the swan then walked 1/4 mile up the road and let it go near the river.
Sorted.
They wouldn't let anyone do this apparently. The seige ended with the swan waddling up the hill away from the camera and into a lane on the left. My passenger got out of the cab, calmly cornered & picked up the swan then walked 1/4 mile up the road and let it go near the river.

The cop car sprang into action, drove after it and 'blocked' off the lane so that the swan would have to squeeze past the car and a hedge to get back to the road.
