Scott D. Clark, a guest at the Embassy Suites Hotel in St. Paul, cornered the duck early Saturday morning, grabbed the bird and ripped its head from its body while a hotel security guard and others watched, police said.
Clark then turned to onlookers and said: “I’m hungry. I’m gonna eat it,” St. Paul police Sgt. John Wuorinen said.
“He was allegedly drunk,” Wuorinen said.
I’ve stayed at that hotel, and it was awesome to have ducks wandering around in the atrium. But I always knew something like this would happen eventually.
