Residents of the Luxembourg-Belgium border town of Martelange were surprised on Saturday when five wild boars suddenly appeared and raced through the streets.

According to reports in local Belgian press, it is not known why the boars decided to visit Martelange, but they began their urban trip by wandering through the town not seeming to be particularly nervous or frightened.

It wasn't until hunters shot at the animals, that they began to panic and ran off towards the woods nearby.

A passer-by managed to catch the 'sounder' of wild boars (apparently the group name for them) on camera as the ran by. Check out the video below..
