TORRINGTON, Conn. -- A wild turkey literally crashed a meeting of the Warner Theatre board of directors, officials in Torrington said. The turkey came crashing through a second-floor window Thursday afternoon at the Mertz building on Main Street. The 1-year-old male sent glass shards crashing to the sidewalk and then got trapped inside the building and slammed against another half-inch thick picture window, frantically trying to escape. Marvin Maskovsky, who was leading the meeting, said the bird was not injured, just agitated. He says theater staff called animal control, who spent a half-hour removing the turkey. Tony Bonacassio, the animal control officer, captured the 18-pound turkey to release it in the woods.
