Traffic on a busy highway in Changsha, Hunan province, came to a standstill as 28 pigs escaped a van transporting them and ran helter-skelter following an accident on Monday.

A lorry "overloaded" with the pigs overturned after a tire burst.

Traffic police had to shut down the highway for more than an hour to catch the pigs.
