Rampaging pig runs from police officer in hilarious dash cam footage

When you're a pig, you don't have to worry about everyday human concerns like obeying police officers. You can just do what you want.

Take the curly-tailed beast in the video below, shared by the Metropolitan Police's Road & Transport unit, for example.

The big pink chap has literally no concept of the law.

We particularly like the jogger who has to dodge out of the pig's way in that clip.

"Police were called at 12:45hrs on Wednesday, 12 April to the A12 in Redbridge, near the junction with Hainault Road, RM6, to reports of a pig on the loose," a New Scotland Yard spokesperson said in a statement.

"Officers attended the scene and the pig was safely recaptured and returned to the nearby land that it had escaped from."
