A herd of 50 wild pigs rampaged through a Bulgarian town on Friday, after high waters of the river Danube forced them out of a neighboring Romanian island.
The boars swam the border river and stormed the northeastern town of Silistra, breaking shop windows and smashing several cars, regional police said. Some ran into a hotel's yard while others were seen in the hospital's garden and near the police station.
While most of the boars later ran off into the forest, four were shot down by forest officers. The meat, if deemed edible by a vet, will be donated to an elderly people's home.
