Family man fatally injures 'Pinky' the dancing flamingo

(AP) — Veterinarians at Busch Gardens had to euthanize "Pinky" the dancing flamingo after a man grabbed her from an animal viewing area and threw her to the ground.

According to a police report, 45-year-old Joseph Anthony Corrao of Orlando was visiting the theme park with his family on Tuesday when he reached into a pen in the Jambo Junction area, picked up the flamingo and threw her down.

Corrao was detained by the park's security and arrested by Tampa police on a charge of felony animal cruelty after witnesses said they saw him throw the flamingo.
