Police carried out a 'big game' hunt today after a bus driver reported seeing a six foot crocodile on the loose.
Avon and Somerset police Chief Constable Nick Gargan told his Twitter followers that a bus driver flagged down an officer claiming to have spotted the large reptile under a bridge.
Gargan tweeted: "One of our officers was flagged down by a bus driver today, claiming to have seen a 6ft crocodile under Coronation Bridge. We can't find it."
Officers searched for the beast but were unable to find any trace under Coronation Bridge, Bristol.
A spokesperson said: "We were called at 10:28am on Monday, February 3, to reports of a crocodile sighted on Bedminster Bridge.
"We carried out a search of the area but found no trace of the reptile."
