Thief steals car tire, swaps it with frozen turkey

That’s a fowl move.

A suspect stole a Milwaukee man’s car tire last Monday and left the vehicle propped atop a frozen turkey.

“I’ve never seen anything like this before,” the victim told Fox 6 News. “I heard of people putting bricks, but I’ve never heard of a turkey underneath.”

The man said he discovered the tire theft as he was getting ready to leave for work.

“I hope you enjoy that tire because you could have gave that turkey to somebody who really needed it,” the man, addressing the tire thief, told the news outlet.

He said he filed a police report and expects it will cost $600 to repair the car.
