People in Tyrone are asked to be on the lookout for a missing wallaby.

The kangaroo type creature is on the loose after escaping from the Glenpark Estate near Omagh at around 3pm yesterday.

It was last seen on the Gortin Road and you're asked to approach the animal with caution.

Richard Beattie of Glenpark says while the marsupial poses no real threat, it may be startled and unpredictable.

As the animals were put into their enclosure, one got spooked and jumped a five-foot fence before making its getaway.

If you happen to be in the area and spot a marsupial hopping down the road, you haven't gone mad - and you should probably contact the PSNI.
