Swan investigated by police for breaking coffee cup
Quote:
Every morning Alfred the swan waddles into the the Bridge Café in the hope of being served a treat from its cake display.
"After a customer refused to give food to the begging swan, it swiped the man's coffee cup off the table," said Davide Tizza.
Outraged, the customer immediately called the police. But the police officers dispatched to the scene only asked "if the man expected them to press charges against the swan," Tizza told ZDF.
Despite his brush with the law, Alfred continues to rove through the town at its leisure, stopping only for photo shoots with passersby and regular snacks.
