Three men arrested in connection with the deaths of over thirty swans in North Somerset will not be charged for the offences.

Two of the trio, who are in their thirties and forties, have been released without charge, while the other is accused of possessing a shotgun without a licence.

Author Sir Terry Pratchett contributed towards a twenty-six thousand pound reward to catch the killers of the birds, who'd been shot with airguns - many in the head.
