Why did the turkey cross the road? Well, it didn’t. Instead, it crashed into a passing semi-truck on Highway 14 in Marion County on Friday morning.

The Marion County Sheriff’s Office posted on its Facebook page that a turkey smashed through the windshield of the semi-truck, causing significant damage. Thankfully, the driver sustained only minor cuts from the shattered glass.

The turkey did not survive. No word on what the truck driver had for dinner on Friday night.
