A sheep (not the one killed)
A SHEEP was killed in an incident which closed the A40 near Wolvercote for almost half an hour last night.
About 15 sheep strayed onto the road just before 9pm and were soon followed by more, with as many as 60 causing disruption at one point.
The road was shut by police to allow the sheep to be herded back into their field.
Thames Valley Police spokeswoman Lucy Billen said: “The road was all clear by 9.27pm.
“However one sheep was killed when it was hit by a car.”
