Cobb County police officers were called to the scene where something had gone a little a-“fowl.” A wild turkey was standing in the middle of Milford Church Road and wouldn’t move. The bird, which officers named Henry, wasn’t in any mood to cooperate. When an officer tried to shoo him off the road, Henry chased him instead. And it was all captured on video.
Body and dash camera footage shows Henry going after the officers, stalking them around their own patrol cars. The chase goes on for several minutes, and it seems Henry has no intention of getting out of the way. Police tried air horns and a few careful maneuvers to move him along. None of it worked, though. At one point an officer can be heard asking, “Oh, why does he keep coming after me?”
The officers never managed to move Henry themselves. He left the road on his own a few minutes later, after they had given up and were laughing about it. No one was hurt in the standoff…
