Don't Mind Them

• In Fairfax County, Virginia, a man entered a 7-Eleven store and displayed a knife, which was the least interesting part of the robbery, Fox5DC-TV reported.

The man, who was described as Hispanic, was wearing a black cowboy hat upon which perched two parrots. Another parrot was riding on the man's shoulder.

The suspect escaped in a blue SUV with an undisclosed amount of money, police said.

• And in northern England, an unnamed driver was issued a traffic offense report by police after he was observed motoring along the M62 with an African gray parrot on his shoulder, The Guardian reports.

"Animals should be in suitable carriers/restraints so that they don't interfere with your ability to drive safely,” police posted on X.
