Tenby seagull steals family of 4 from Aldershot
Share
A family holiday to Pembrokeshire took a dramatic turn yesterday after a Tenby seagull reportedly made off with an entire family of four in what witnesses are describing as “a bold but not entirely surprising move.”
The incident began at approximately 1:14pm on Tenby’s North Beach, when the youngest child foolishly opened a bag of chips.
Within seconds, multiple seagulls were seen circling overhead before one “significantly larger and more confident than the others” swooped in.
Witnesses say the bird initially took a single chip.
What followed has been described as “a rapid escalation.”
The family, from Aldershot, remain unaccounted for.
Local law enforcement have neither confirmed or denied reports that this issue is linked to a missing ice-cream van in the same area.
A spokesperson from Visit Wales said “We'd like to reassure holiday-makers that the majority of visits to Tenby do not result in full family abduction.”
