Police are used to being called out to deal with intruders but for one address in Brent the unwanted visitor was a fox.
Officers were called to the address in Campden Crescent in Wembley, by the petrified resident who was too scared to approach it herself.
The fox, described as being ‘very frightened’, was coaxed out of the property after officers closed all the internal doors and gently shooed it outside.
Officers from Brent Police tweeted a photograph of the unwanted visitor last night.
Are you the resident who found this fox in your home?
