Jail bird pet sounds alarm

A PARROT in Brazil has been taken into custody for warning his drug-dealing owner police were about to launch a raid – squawking: “Mummy, police!”

The green-feathered felon began screeching loudly the moment officers showed up at the home in the eastern city of Teresina. “He must have been trained for that,” a police officer involved in the operation said. “As soon as police got close, he began shouting.”

The loyal loudmouth, whose name was not reported, was seized by cops and placed in a chicken wire cage at a local police station.
