KENNEBUNK, Maine (AP) Police in Maine say they’re on the lookout for a wild turkey that broke into a home through a bedroom window.

The Bangor Daily News reports Kennebunk officers responded to a local home Wednesday, saying a turkey had “forcibly entered the house” through the window. Police posted photos of the wild bird to Facebook, showing the window destroyed while the turkey stands on a bed staring at itself in a mirror.

Police also attached an “artist’s rendering of the suspect”, a generic line drawing of a turkey, referring to the turkey as a “peeping Tom.”

Police are asking local residents to be on the lookout for “Tom.”
