A murder most fowl

It's said that cats climb as high as they can so they can look down upon other creatures. It's also said that is why they hate birds. On a warm July night in 1987 an event would happen in Toledo that would forever change the citizen's lives as they knew it.

It was the next morning that the victim was found. The police dispatch code for this kind of case is "Three Crows"....

The victim was found locked inside a 1980's refrigerator. The contents of which had been removed, down to the shelves. Two entire rolls of duct tape had been wrapped around the refrigerator to prevent the door from opening. Once the tomb had been completed the perpetrator's then dumped the final resting place of Polly "Paco" Macaw into the Maumee river.

The crime scene was of course treated with the utmost respect it deserved. Polly was given a proper burial and even a full military funeral with honors.

Polly "Paco" Macaw was of course one of the most well known parrots in the world. A life long veteran of the Navy Polly's list of accomplishments include but of course are not limited to To this day nobody knows how or why Polly was murdered. Those that are guilty of this most evil act have never been found. The evidence that was collected at the crime scene yielded little results if any. To this day the case remains considered open. The only cold case the TPD ever had. A blotch on an otherwise perfect record. There are many theories as to how it happened.
