    The man was held on suspicion of assault, assaulting a police officer and being drunk and disorderly, and is currently in custody.

    A woman has said her "heart was thumping" after a swan crashed through the double-glazed bathroom window of her chalet home.

    Jean Wilkinson had been standing by the sink under the window moments before the bird smashed through the home in Barton in Fabis, Nottinghamshire, on 11 January.

    The 78-year-old said she had sat down with a cup of coffee and some toast with marmalade when she heard an "almighty" noise.

    "I've never heard such a loud noise in my whole life - it was shattering," she said.

    "It was just so loud and obviously my heart was thumping.

    "I was scared to go and look."

    She first checked the bedrooms but when she didn't find anything unusual, she went to look in the bathroom.

    Ms Wilkinson said: "I could see glass on the floor... I thought my shower screen had shattered.

    "As I pushed the door open further I could see the swan on the floor and blood everywhere.

    "The swan was just sort of looking at me with its head up and the window shattered."

    Ms Wilkinson then contacted her neighbours who helped with the clean-up and reported it to the RSPCA.

    Keith Ellis, the RSPCA inspector that attended and collected the swan, said he had never seen anything like it in his 40-year career.

    Ms Wilkinson said she felt "lucky" not to have been hurt herself.

    "I had been in the bathroom, standing right by the sink which is under the window so I was quite lucky really," she added.
