The sign of the apocalypse will not be that of the Four Horsemen. It’s a giant inflatable duck sweeping across the highway. 

The mascot of Peter Vardy, a car dealership in Glasgow, Scotland, escaped on Saturday, during a bout of heavy winds. It went tumbling across a busy four-lane road, as if migrating for the winter, and reportedly hit one vehicle.

Footage of the duck on the loose was shared on Facebook by onlooker Mark Duncan.

I tried call to Peter Vardy to learn the current whereabouts of the duck. I was transferred to a general manager and told I’d be called back with a statement. We’ll keep you updated this very important story.
