Inspector Neil Campbell said: “Our officers often face a variety of incidents in the course of their duties and regularly deal with more than crime.
“We’re pleased to see a new home was found for the piglet, who now sports the rather catchy name Branston Piggle.
“We wish him a long and happy life in his new home, where he seems to already be quite the hit.”
