Runaway pet ostrich found racing traffic on motorway

A runaway ostrich caused a commotion on one of China's busiest highways after bursting through a toll booth barrier and then racing traffic.
The 6.5ft tall bird broke through the barrier in Yiwu before running off down the road. He was found by traffic police hours later, but not before it had been involved in a race with a car, picking up its speed and running alongside.
The police had to wait for the tired bird to rest for around 10 minutes before they were able to successfully take the creature away. After the incident, it was revealed that the ostrich is the pet of a nearby villager.
The owner said that he has a pair of pet ostriches, and he called the police when he realized that the male one had gone missing.
