Cops: Some Turkeys Are Establishing Their Dominance On Metro Roads

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- A pair of turkeys is causing problems for drivers in the south metro, and not even police can scare them off.

A Chaska officer recently took pictures of turkeys on Norex Drive. The two male turkeys weren't allowing vehicles to pass and were also coming up right to them.

The turkeys forced several drivers to turn around.

Police say the male turkeys can be aggressive this time of year as they try to establish their dominance during the mating season.

They say if you come across angry turkeys, just slowly drive forward and they will eventually move out of the way.
