DRIVERS passing through Storridge, near Malvern, this afternoon were held up for a wholly unusual reason – as a large pig got loose and ran along the road.

Freelance photographer Dave Mackay spotted the massive 300kg porker causing chaos on the A4103 at about 3.30pm this afternoon.

“Not the usual main road traffic I see passing my office window,” he said.

Thankfully the rogue swine was apprehended after a brief chase and drivers were able to carry on without fear of making a accidental bacon roll.
