Man uses live swan as a weapon

Bird used as a club during a fight in Munich

29 May 2009

A vicious attacker wielding a live swan went on the rampage on the banks of the river Isar in Munich.

He grabbed the swan by its neck, and swung it like a club at his victim after an afternoon drinking session.

The assailant, identified only as Sebastian P, has been given a two-year suspended sentence as a result of the attack, which resulted in minor injuries to the victim.

The fight broke out after Sebastian took offence at a tourist's east German accent, and shouted "P*** off you eastern pig, they should rebuild the Wall right up to the sky because of you."

He attacked their victim with a variety of objects, including the swan and a burning barbeque.

Thankfully, the swan managed to fly away, and escaped unhurt.
