Joyous moment police officers keep people entertained through the coronavirus lockdown by singing to them

Police officers in Spain have been keeping quarantined locals' spirits up by singing for them in the street.

The officers in the town of Algaida in the Mediterranean island of Mallorca drove through the streets with sirens on before asking people stuck inside: "Do you feel like singing with us?"

They then burst into a choreographed song and dance routine, performing En Joan petit quan balla, which is a traditional Mallorcan children's song, according to local media.

Residents appeared to enjoy the performance, singing and clapping along to the music.
