"Beware of Man Eating Turkey!" was the headline in today's Gazette. It was one man's story, the story everyone was talking about. This would be one Thanksgiving that no one will ever forget.
The article in the paper stated that the police were looking for several missing men. With no promising leads, the police asked the public for help.
One survivor came forward with an unbelievable story about a man eating turkey. The following events are true.
He was in the woods behind his house when he stumbled upon mysterious animal tracks in the mud. The man followed the tracks until he found the source. What he found was horrific, a turkey that was eating his dinner; a human being. Just then the man eating turkey noticed him and the chase began. The man was able to run back to his house and contact the police.
After hearing the story the police went into the woods to investigate. They were unable to find the mysterious turkey so they need help. If you see a huge 8-foot tall turkey weighing about 500 pounds please call the police A.S.A.P!
From that day forward, people didn't eat turkeys; turkeys ate people.
