Swan on the loose? Call in the Hot Fuzz! Police 'detain' large bird and escort it to lake after it blocks traffic on busy road

Wind your neck in! This angry swan looks desperate to escape after it was captured and held a police car – in a scene that echoes the comedy film Hot Fuzz.

It was detained for blocking traffic and escorted to a lake after motorists saw it by a busy road outside Cambridge.

The incident drew comparisons with the 2007 film featuring hapless police officers played by Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.

Memorably responding to descriptions of a suspect with a ‘long, slender neck’, the movie duo grappled with their own escaped swan in the fictional town of Sandford, supposedly in rural Gloucestershire, before driving it away in their patrol car. 

Posting an online image of the Cambridge incident, police said they had received reports of an ‘angry individual swanning around’ and blocking traffic on the A428 on Friday. 

They added: ‘One swan detained (put in the back of a police car) and taken to custody (the nearest water officers could find!)

‘Thank you to those who reported it and helped us to rescue this cheeky chap.’
