An unusual sight on a fast road; but it may have flown across from the nearby River Irwell or one of its tributaries…
Police were called tonight after a goose on the loose in the city centre forced a motorist to swerve across Mancunian Way.
The feathered troublemaker flew in front of a vehicle on one of Manchester city centre’s busiest routes at around 9.15pm.
And the driver, who luckily was unhurt, alerted police to the danger after narrowly avoiding hitting the feckless fowl.
DS Dave Henshall, from the city centre’s policing team, then tweeted out a warning to other motorists to be wary of any winged dangers.
