Escaped animal pays a festive visit
Residents of a street in Nottingham got a festive surprise this week as they spotted a reindeer galloping along the road.
The runaway, named Bjorn, had been at a Christmas event in a nearby Tesco store when he was reportedly startled by a car horn.
He is then said to have slipped his rope and bolted down a residential street.
Gemma Green had been putting up Christmas cards in her window when she spotted Bjorn. It was "like a scene from Arthur Christmas where Santa loses his reindeer," she told the Nottingham Post.
"I thought I was seeing things at first."
The escapee was located in a garden shortly afterwards and returned to the event, which was run by The Animal Company. The company's director, Nathan Anderson-Dixon, is quoted by BBC News as saying Bjorn is "fine" and "resting in his stable".
