Hot Fuzz-like police apprehend “drunk man” who grabbed swan from port

After transporting an injured swan to the vet in the back of their squad vehicle, Devon police officers found themselves experiencing the events depicted in the 2007 comedy Hot Fuzz.

The notoriously irritable bird got into some trouble last night in Plymouth Harbour and was saved by a “drunk guy.”

The huge bird became injured after it wandered onto the road and was struck by a vehicle, according to PlymouthLive.

When police arrived, they discovered the moaning swan and a large group of worried bystanders who had apparently wrapped the unhappy animal up.

The cops transported the animal to the veterinarian and left it there, where it is currently recovering.
