Alleged duck killer charged with felony
The man accused of ripping the head off a live duck at a St. Paul hotel was charged today with felony animal cruelty.
Scott D. Clark, 26, of Denver, walked into the atrium area of the Embassy Suites Hotel in downtown St. Paul early Saturday morning, approached one of the tame ducks in the duck pond, cornered it against a brick wall and tore its head off, according to a criminal complaint filed in Ramsey County District Court.
He then took the body of the duck up to the fifth floor of the hotel, the complaint said.
Clark was staying at the Embassy Suites on business.
Confronted by police, Clark said he worked for the federal government and that he would "have the officers' jobs" when it was all over.
He didn't seem to understand why he was in trouble. "Big deal, it's just a f---ing duck," Clark said, according to the complaint. Police said Clark appeared to have been drinking.
