‘Team 2 Officers had a hoot last night removing this offender from obstructing a highway.’

The owl was reluctant to come quietly, but after a little bit of kindness from the police, the bird was on its way.


Thames Valley Police added: ‘After some initial resistance and failure to comply, PC Justin Barton took him under his wing and showed him to the side of the road to carry on his journey.’



Officers took advice from the RSPCA and moved the owl, who was ‘responsive and uninjured’, to the side of the road to safety.
