Gardaí found a lost little pig in Wicklow yesterday and reunited him with his owners
That Vodafone ad in real life? Not far off it now.
WE’D SAY THE gardaí see some interesting things on a daily basis, but this was unusual even for them.
Officers from Greystones found a tiny lost pig while on patrol in Kilcoole yesterday afternoon. They reported that they took it into custody on suspicion of being “on its way to market”:
Eager to get the pig back to its owner, they put out a call on Twitter for information, and were quickly reminded of the situation’s similarity to a certain ad.
By 7pm, the pig had been reunited with its family – and it emerged that its name was not in fact Sue, but Ziggy the Piggy.
“We all love a happy ending,” tweeted the gardaí. As do we.
