Saskatoon police stop traffic to escort family of ducklings to the river

Downtown traffic stood still for a few adorable moments in Saskatoon on Thursday, as police escorted a family of ducks to the South Saskatchewan River.

While on patrol, the Saskatoon police bike unit discovered nearly a dozen ducklingsjust outside the Sturdy Stone Building on the corner of 22nd Street and Third Avenue.

Officers came out to stop traffic and escort the young family three blocks until it reached the river.
