Fowl Play Reported With Chickens on Loose at Toll Plaza

At least one chicken ran afoul in traffic at the toll plaza for the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge on September 2. There were reports of as many as four chickens on the highway, but California Highway Patrol officers only captured one at about 10 am, according to local media. The first report of the chickens in traffic was just before 6 am, as the morning commute was building, according to reports.

No word on why the chickens were crossing the road.

This footage shows one of the chickens in traffic. The uploader reports in the video he saw three chickens and two had died. He also joked that the chicken didn’t have the $6 to cross the bridge. Credit: Instagram/mrcalibay
