An errant sheep was found running on the one-way system at Lancaster yesterday.

Then it headbutted the police dog handler who was trying to catch it.

The Lancashire Police Dog Unit tweeted: "First job if the day was to sight this running on Lancaster one-way system. Then followed a comedy moment as the sheep headbutted the dog handler.
