Two Pittsburgh police officers had to chase some unlikely fugitives that obstructed traffic along Fifth Avenue in Shadyside.

A flock of turkeys stopped traffic on the road Sunday, drawing onlookers and the wrath of the law.

After their sirens and lights failed to deter the stubborn birds, police drove the birds into a park near the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts.

There were no reports of injuries to onlookers or the birds.
