Aggressive pig sparks helicopter chase in Germany
Berlin - German police deployed a helicopter today to track and kill a ferocious little pig after it attacked some cows, chasing one around a barn until it died.
The knee-high animal, described by police as a Siamese pot-bellied pig, entered the barn near the western German town of Geldern on Monday morning.
"One cow died after being chased round the barn, and a second cow suffered bite wounds," said police spokesman Dieter Brauers.
"We thought it might be infected with rabies because it was so aggressive."
Police launched a search for the pig, scrambling a helicopter, which located it in a nearby field.
"We surrounded the field and a marksman killed it with a single shot," said Brauers.
