>>Bird in the Hand
Police in Kitchener, Ontario arrested a woman who was driving while only partially dressed. There was also a pet bird flying around loose in the car at the time. Police became concerned with the car because the driver was continually sounding her horn as she drove. There's one more fact that lifts this story from the slightly odd to the almost supernatural: police say that alcohol wasn't involved.
