A DOG was caught strolling the streets during the weekend's heatwave after it escaped its home near Tenbury.

Teddy was found by the Malvern Safer Neighbour Team (SNT) on the main road outside of Rochford after he took it upon himself to go for a walk.

Malvern SNT decided to turn him into PD Teddy for the day and drove him around in their police car until his owner was found.

A spokesperson for Malvern SNT said: "Little Teddy was found by officers having a stroll on the main road out of Rochford towards Tenbury Wells.

"However, it was Teddy's lucky day.

"He had a nice ride in the police car and he became PD Teddy for a while.

Luckily, his owner has been located and has returned home for some much-needed water, rest and a small talk about leaving the farm."
