Daily Echo: Traffic sign Check the latest local traffic reports

A wallaby left motorists hopping mad this morning.

The animal caused traffic chaos in a Hampshire village early today.

The animal got out of the White House care home in Vicarage Lane, Curdridge, about 6am.

The escapee then defied police attempts to catch it for about 75 minutes as it enjoyed its freedom, exploring between Botley Road and Wangfield Lane.

It eventually had enough of its new found freedom after 75 minutes and hopped back into the grounds.

No one was injured in the bizarre drama.
