A warning sign advises visitors to "wear a hat or use an umbrella" to protect themselves

Police officers and staff are being "terrorised" by a family of crows that is nesting at its headquarters.

Essex Police Deputy Chief Constable Pippa Mills warned visitors to the site to "beware" and "keep calm and keep walking" in a tweet about the issue.

She shared a photo of a warning sign which has been put up at Essex Police HQ.

It advises people to "take an alternative route" or "wear a hat or use an umbrella".

The sign urges people to "not act aggressive as they will feel threatened".

In a tweet, Ms Mills said the family of crows had been "terrorising staff who walk in front of the buildings".
