British police using a drone to search for a suspect instead discovered the likeness of a giant penis mowed into a field.

Devon and Cornwall police drone operators shared the display on Facebook.

The post read: “Whilst . . . searching for an offender who’d recently run off from police, we came across this unusual piece of artwork in a field!”

A British bull, perhaps sensing his end was near, hoofed it out of a slaughterh­ouse and went on a rampage Tuesday.

The fugitive animal damaged a police car and snarled traffic in Birmingham before finally being recaptured.

A fraudster tried to dupe a Singapore woman in a banking scheme over a WhatsApp video call, but eventually admitted he was a con man under her relentless grilling.

Vanessa Mittman said her 10-year-old son initially received the May 5 call in which a man on the other end said he was from Singapore’s DBS Bank.

During the nearly 10-minute call, in which Mittman repeatedly questioned the imposter and threatened to report him to the police, he conceded, “I’m a scammer.”

An unemployed North Carolina man may not need a new position as soon as he thought.

Fredd Jordan, a chef from Smithfield, scored a $200,000 lottery prize earlier this month on his way to a job interview.

While at a convenienc­e store, Jordan purchased some scratch-off tickets, one of which was a winner.

It was unknown if he got the job.

A University of North Carolina track coach unofficial­ly broke a world record when he ran a mile in 4 minutes and 37 seconds — while dribbling a basketball.

Dylan Sorensen, who donned a Michael Jordan jersey during the feat Friday, said he was inspired by the ESPN documentar­y series about Jordan and the Chicago Bulls, “The Last Dance.”
