Family say they've been forced to tool up due to 'psycho' seagulls

'Psycho' seagulls have led to a family claiming they almost feel like prisoners in their own home. They say they've even had to arm themselves with brooms and walking sticks and only take their dog out for short walks while holding a garden parasol.

Dave Baker, 43, has been dive-bombed in 'co-ordinated attacks' on several occasions as he runs to the local shops. Now if the birds are lying in wait, his partner, 41 year-old Nicki, must phone ahead and ask their daughter Katrina to bring the garden parasol to make sure she makes it home safely.

Nicki told North Wales Live: "OMG they are dangerous. Yesterday it took me three attempts to get home."
