Fowl play: Bank held up by renegade rooster Between UFOs and murder hornets, 2020 has already cemented itself as one of the strangest years on record. But in any case, we bet you didn’t have “psychotic chickens” on your 2020 bingo sheet. In Walker, Louisiana, police are on the hunt for an aggressive chicken that had been terrorizing visitors to a local bank.
