In St. Joseph County, Indiana, local police responded to a 911 call about a turkey that was alarming customers at Martin's pharmacy. Body camera footage revealed the police's humorous efforts to capture the bird, which involved officers cornering it on shelves. One officer ultimately decided to just grab the turkey directly, leading to its capture without incident. The bird was then transported outside and released back into the wild, showcasing a light-hearted moment in police work while emphasizing community engagement.
"We need animal control out here. [The turkey] is chasing the customers. It's a really big turkey," the caller told 911.
Using both his hands, the officer grabs the turkey as it tries to flap away - successfully ending the turkey terror.
The officers took the bird out and released it back into the wild.
"Props to all responding officers-especially K9 Officer O'Konski, who's now certified in poultry negotiations," the police department said on social media.
