Police in Germany rescue man being chased by baby squirrel

German police have rescued a man after he called for help saying a baby squirrel would not leave him alone.

Emergency services received a call on Thursday from the man, who claimed he was being chased down the street by the tiny animal.

Police in Karlsruhe said the unnamed man called them in desperation after he was unable to shake off the small rodent.

Officers sent a patrol car out to investigate and arrived to find the chase still in full flow. But the drama ended suddenly when the squirrel, apparently exhausted by its exertions, lay down abruptly and fell asleep.

Workplace pension changes leave you £120,000 worse off

Savers into a modern workplace pension will be tens of thousands of pounds worse off in later life because employers have dramatically cut what they contribute.

Figures provided exclusively to Telegraph Money by the Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association (PLSA) reveal how much less employers pay into staff pension schemes today compared to in the past.
