LONDON, Dec. 8 (UPI) -- A fox was spotted running down an escalator at a London Underground train station, a witness to the unusual urban wildlife episode says.
"As I got off the train and headed towards the up escalator I saw this daring creature dashing full speed down the down escalator, which was taped off for maintenance workers at the bottom," Kate Arkless Gray, 29, told The Mirror of her midnight Saturday encounter.
"I was wishing I'd been able to film it and then the workers at the bottom of the escalator shooed him back up again. He paused near the top for a moment so I scrabbled around in my bag and took some pictures. We were all stunned."
Gray said the fox eventually turned and left the station.
"He calmly left under the ticket barrier and went towards the bus station exit. Maybe he was trying to catch the last bus home," she said.
