A Norfolk farmer has been given an antisocial behaviour order because his pigs kept breaking free.

Cromer Magistrates' Court heard last week how Brian Hagan's pigs had caused damage to nearby property.

North Norfolk Council and Norfolk police had received numerous complaints about them.

Up to 30 of his 100 animals at a time were involved. The Asbo states that Hagan, whose farm is in Briston, Norfolk, must not allow his pigs to escape from his property.

Hagan said that he had erected a five-foot fence to keep the pigs in their field.
