One resident said: ā€œI heard it flying overhead and just assumed it was a local police helicopter.

ā€œI wonder if it is an American celebrity visiting the area, I know Taylor Swift came to the Cotswolds in the summer.ā€

The helicopter is a black model which has been spotted in the UK in 2021 and 2023.
