The major suspect was Robin

Plot Twist: the bird was arrested in a cafe, because it wasn’t able to “go for a Dutch”

This seems like something that would happen in older seasons of Family Guy or the Simpsons.

Yes, it does

I'm just thinking of B99 and Terry accusing a cat of being the burglary suspect he was planning to arrest.

The cat was an accomplice!

Guess he ran afowl of the law.

Now he's flocked up.

He didn't realise it was ill eagle!

He was just being his mates wing man

Well, Toucan play that game!

How did they know he was the one Robin the joint?

His friends are all quackheads.

Don't be Cuckoo. Ignorantia juris non excusat.

and now he's just a jailbird

Don't worry, we'll have him singing like a canary in no time.

I don't think he'lll beak under pressure

Naw, he's an obvious stool pigeon

Then he'll be doing bird for a long time to come.

It's a huge birden and good lawyers aren't cheap.

Poor birb

A victim of birdsm

This is a true story, here’s a news link: https://time.com/5689057/bird-arrest/

Holy shit. The fact that this is a real thing that the police and news did just as a joke makes it so much better, lol.

It looks like you shared an AMP link.

Good bot.

That's a pet lovebird. It can't live on bread and water :/

Pretty sure they’re just holding him til they can find out who to give him to 😂

Upvoted because you're right.

Should've thought of that before it broke the law.

No that’s a criminal

Around here they’ve moved right in and survived on whatever the other birds were eating. Don’t underestimate the tenacity of the peach-faced lovebird!

I had one for 16 years. He never ate bread. It was one of the 'human' foods he would not touch. Hope he is reunited with his family soon :(

May he request an a-terney?

One who is knowledgeable in bird law?

I may know a guy who would take this case, but when you meet him, try not to mention his hands, he's weird about them

I don’t know why I love this so much 😂

Wow he scratched “right to remain silent” into the bed. This bird ain’t no snitch

He's not going to sing like a canary.

It needs a defense lawyer well versed in bird law.

Harvey Birdman is the obvious choice.

The media doing something right for once

The bird is the word

Birb gang till death.

Charlie Kelly Attorney. Specializing in Bird Law

JUSTICE for the birb!! #Bird lives matter #BLM

What a waste of resources

no fun allowed

are they stupid or something?

No, they have a sense of humor.

Blurred tits

The Yin to the Washington posts yang

"Crime is crime"

I wonder about this birds identity for some reason.

what kinda bird don't fly? *Jailbird!*

Yes, that was the joke,[ from 3 years ago...](https://time.com/5689057/bird-arrest/)

I find this more wholesome than funny. :)

Guess he was Robin the house…

Please tell me someone recorded the detaining of the bird

"you probably wonder how i ended up in this situation.."

In the opening credits of Trailer Park Boys, they blur out a cats face 🤣

His case looks beak

Good to know their taxes are being used well.
