Teen released by police after swan shooting arrest
A teenager arrested after two swans were shot dead in a Leeds park has been released without charge by police.
The 17-year-old boy was questioned in connection with the incident, which happened in Middleton Park on 30 November.
A male swan shot in the neck died at the scene, while his female companion died at an animal hospital after being shot in the head five times.
West Yorkshire Police said the youth was arrested on December 2, but had now been ruled out of their inquiries and will face no further action.
The force said its investigation continued and it was keen to hear from anyone who might have information about the attacks.
