Berlin - A man in Germany fled his home half naked into cold, snow-swept streets to escape a mouse in his living room, authorities said on Thursday.
"He said there was nothing he was more afraid of," police in Goettingen said.
After an emergency call in the early hours, officers in the central town found the 23-year-old wearing only his boxer shorts and slippers at a phone booth near his home.
The man told police he had seen the mouse scurry across the floor while he was watching a film, and had fled immediately.
Police failed to track down the animal, but told the man it was safe to go home. He went to relatives instead.
