A giant pet parrot attacked a policeman after its owner was pulled over for driving with the bird on her shoulder.
The driver was arrested after the officer discovered she was banned from driving - but then had to drive her car to the pound with the pet parrot flying loose inside the car.
The macaw, which was furious at being parted from its owner, launched wave after wave of attack on the officer - leaving him with bite and scratch marks to his hands and arms as he tried to drive the car to the pound.
Chief officer Steve Masters said he drafted in a raw recruit to take care of the macaw, saying that the 'bad' jobs fell to new people in the job.
The RSPCA in Dover now has the bird.
