Colombian police 'arrest' parrot



Police in the Colombian city of Barranquilla “arrested” a parrot after it helped several alleged drug dealers get away during a raid.
When officers arrived at the house they heard a voice that said insistently, “Run, run or the cat will get you!” They found Lorenzo, a parrot who had been trained to alert residents upon the arrival of the authorities.
The police say more than 1,000 of trained birds are being used by drug dealers and thieves as informants in Colombia.
