A teenager has been arrested after a baby wallaby died at a fun farm.

The young animal called Mick died after allegedly being chased around its enclosure by a group of teenagers at Dalscone Farm Fun in Dumfries at the weekend.

CCTV captured images of the teenagers who it is claimed entered the enclosure containing the fun farm's three wallabies.

Two of the wallabies escaped but Mick did not. The distressed young wallaby died on Sunday evening, despite the efforts of a vet to save it.

A 16-year-old boy has now been arrested over the incident.

In a statement, police said: "Officers from Dumfries Community Policing Unit have arrested a 16-year-old male in relation to the incident at Dalscone Farm on Saturday, 18 March, 2017, whereby damage was caused and a wallaby died.

"Enquiries are continuing into this incident but we would like to thank the public at this time for their assistance during this enquiry."
