New Hampshire man fined $124 for kicking seagull that tried to eat his cheeseburger

A man accused of kicking a seagull that tried to eat his cheeseburger at a New Hampshire beach has been fined $124.

Police investigated the report from a bystander at Hampton Beach earlier this summer.

NH1 reports the man Nate Rancloes, said he had just returned from getting a cheeseburger and fries and was sitting on the sand. He said seagulls got to the burger, and he spun around with his leg to shoo one away, but struck the bird. He said it was a simple mistake.

A witness said it appeared the bird’s leg was injured and that it struggled to fly away.

This town owns the seagulls? How can they fine a guy for a wild animal if anything it should be maybe the state, but not a town. If this town is calming ownership of these flying rats, than you should also be able to suit them than for paint damage from their shit!

If he had kicked a citizen the tariff would have been less.
