… And yet another person who fell asleep on the job!
A flock of 1,300 sheep ran loose in the Spanish city of Huesca after their shepherd dozed off
Police responded to an emergency call at 430am, found the shepherd (who was still asleep) and rounded up the flock.
The shepherd was supposed to keep watch until 7am, then guide the flock towards the Pyrenean uplands.
Today, shepherds still fill the streets of Madrid with their flocks in honour of the herding tradition.
