A cricket match had to be abandoned after ants stopped play.
The Thames Valley Police side had just started batting against the Lamb Inn when a cloud of flying ants descended on an unsuspecting batsman.
Players fled the ground in Newbury, Berkshire, and the game was abandoned after attempts to get rid of the insects failed.
Investigations later found nests at both ends of the pitch at St Bartholemew's School.
Adrian Edwards, 67, of the Lamb Inn team, said it was the first time he had ever seen a game abandoned due to ants.
