Raw chicken fl esh spilled in Boerum Hill

Gross!
A disgusting slew of
chicken meat and bones
spilled across Bond Street
in Boerum Hill on Friday
morning. The trail of raw
chicken fl esh lined the
street between Wyckoff
and Bergen streets, according
to one local who stumbled
upon the scene around
9:15 a.m.
“I saw just a massive
pile of glistening meat and
bones,” said Cullen Camic.
The meat must have hit
the road recently, because
there was no fowl smell of
rot, but the sound of trucks
driving over the piles of
bird carcasses was seared
into Camic’s memory.
“It was just like crunching
and squishy,” he said.
“It was intense.”
Camic’s girlfriend Jean
Cooney took a video of the
street and sent it to her
friend Sara Vilkomerson,
who uploaded it to Twitter
, where it quickly went
viral.
“Does anyone know
what the hell kind of
chicken massacre happened
in Boerum Hill?”
Vilkomerson tweeted with
the disgusting footage.
Cleaning trucks from
the city’s Department of
Sanitation soon arrived
and scooped up the dreck,
before street sweeping vehicles
brushed the street,
according to Camic.
A spokeswoman for
the department said the
sweepers came to the scene
around 10 a.m. and that a
truck with water will clean
the street some time today.
“A DSNY mechanical
broom addressed the condition
at 10:00 a.m. A fl usher
(truck with water) is on
the way to address any remaining
street residue,”
said Belinda Mager, in an
emailed statement.
The cause of the cluck-up
is still under investigation,
Mager said.
