Armed Against Foxes - Use Your Loaf.

On a day when a 15 stone man was followed into an alley and mugged by a fox which was intent on getting at the contents of his Tesco shopping bag; a wildlife expert has advised that a good form of defence is to shoot it with a water pistol.

In this case, the victim was not able to lay his hands on this type of weapon and had to defuse the attack, by giving the fox a loaf of garlic bread from his groceries.
