Low flying swans smash through ambulance windscreen at high speed on dual carriageway

Two swans have crashed into an ambulance whilst flying low over a dual carriageway. The freak incident which took place on the westbound carriageway of the A55 near Abergele on Thursday, March 31.

The ambulance's windscreen was left "completely smashed" and taken off the road but neither paramedics nor the swans were left injured. The incident caused long delays in the area as the birds were believed to have been flying low on their way to a nearby pond in Pentre Mawr Park.

The ambulance was towed away following the accident and The Welsh Ambulance Service confirmed it was "thankful" that no patients were on board at the time, the Swans had also been found safe and well.
