The inflatable floated away during Roger Waters' Coachella music festival set
Former Pink Floyd member Roger Waters has been informed that the inflatable pig that floated away during his set at the Coachella music festival has been found.
Organisers of the music festival had offered a $10,000 (£5,000) reward for the return of the inflatable as well as lifetime passes to the Coachella event.
The pig, the width of two buses, and was found by two families outside their homes in California.
The inflatable took the image of a ticket ballot box for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and bore the slogans "fear building walls" and "don't be led to the slaughter".
The pig was tethered to the ground while Waters played the Pink Floyd track Pigs.
According to the BBC, the two families have decided to halve the reward and share the four lifetime tickets to the Coachella festival.
