Woman spotted casually walking a camel down the street in Chingford

'What a great way to get around ULEZ charges.'

A woman was speechless after looking out her window in Chingford, east London – and spotting a camel strolling down the street.

Asia Brown’s daughter told her she had spotted a camel out on the road, but had brushed it aside as her imagination.

But after glancing out the window, hair stylist Asia was in disbelief as she spotted the desert animal ambling down the street while being led by a woman.

The clip begins with Asia filming the camel and the woman strolling down the pavement as she says: ‘Na I’m seeing too much weird stuff today, what is going on?’

The camel sports some sort of saddle and a pink towel on its back as the white-haired woman leading it holds the reins fastened to the animal.

Asia is left in stitches at the bizarre sight, asking again: ‘That is going on? as her daughter was seen saying: ‘See, I told you there was a camel.’

Mum Asia then laughs that she didn’t believe the youngster at first, saying: ‘Listen, this little girl told me there’s a camel outside. I thought she was lying, I actually thought she was capping. What?’

Cars could be seen slowing down as they passed in an effort to get a better look at the exotic animal.

All the while, the camel and the woman leading it continue to make their way down the road, seemingly unbothered by the attention they are attracting.

Asia shared the clip to social media and captioned it: ‘How?’

Someone joked it was a ‘great way to get around Ulez charges’.
