Driver escapes serious injury as wild turkey flies into windshield

BREWSTER – Around 4:30 p.m. Thursday, a wild turkey flew into a truck windshield on Route 6 eastbound. The driver of the MAC Tools step van, Kyle Douglas of Eastham, suffered minor cuts to his arm and received first aid from the Brewster Fire and Rescue.

The turkey ended up inside the vehicle and escaped into the woods along the highway.  The wild turkeys are becoming a problem as their population grows, with more of them being struck by vehicles on the roadways.
