Man calls 999 to say badger chased him

A man in Yeovil called 999 to complain he had been chased by a badger, police have revealed.

He told the operator he had "literally just got away" from the animal, which was "quite vicious" and would not stop chasing him.

The call was released by Avon and Somerset Police hours after a man had dialled 999 to say his sandwich had been stolen by a seagull.
